THose distinctive blue rings are because of the projectors. You would see that with normal halogens as well.

Anyways, I heard that white/blue light is not good in rains, so would really like to know what you experience. If that's not a problem i'll definitely change the stock bulbs.
You are right allhyundaicars, colour temp above 4300K is not good for rain and fog. Lower the temp better the visibility. Yesterday I drove in a foggy weather at around 6-7pm and I had to slow down to 3rd (20-30kmpl). So, IMO one has to consider the climate and choose accordingly. But I am happy with my selection. I suppose Osram night breaker plus has a colour temp of ~ 4000K.

Yes I'v done it by my self. Heres how?
Open the hood and stand in front of the vehicle. Now consider there is a clock facing towards you.
Rotate the cap clock wise and take it out.
Now you can see the bottom part of the bulb where the long arm of L is facing downward.
Now rotate it gently clockwise the same way you opened the cap. At around 10 o'clock position it will come out. Be extra gentle while taking out the bulb.
To disconnect the wiring connector firmly press the hook which is located at the bottom part, hold on to it and pull downwards. Now the bulb is free.

Right side is a tricky business but i did it in the same way. If you face problem then take out the headlight screws and loosen the headlamp then do the procedure.

Take a note: These bulbs are sides specific, I mean left should go to left and right to right. I'v checked the bulb for any visible markings but none (IN MY CASE), so if it is in your case too then you will only know when you install it and test it at night. You will know if its correctly installed or not by seeing the light throw.

With thanks
Hi Dbarma!

A very warm morning to you too.
This is the website which sells Plastic Dip Rubber Coating - Plasti DIP and Multipurpose Rubber Coating Supplier & Distributor from Mumbai, India

and the phone number of the person.
Pankaj Gandhi - +91 982-004-8105.

Which part are you planning to dip, i have been doing the research on it too.. probably would do the rooftop and say on doors too :D. Just an idea. Lets see.

Yes you are somewhat right.
but Fluidic is an established brand and sold over a lac of vernas whereas new city yet to see the roads. Honda is on supply crunch and will not be able to deliver more than 6000 units (at max). Amaze is also on bookings so they have to cater to both. Hence list will be long and people might tempted to buy new sx4, or updated verna or rapid or vento.

But yes city and verna are over and above the rests...

A big NO

It is ruining the look of the car.
Kindly don't do this to the beauty...
The main reason am planning to put the vinyl is for the bumper safety, because people keep hitting the bumpers when in signal and thats a big noo for me, thats why i was just brainstorming ideas on how to safeguard the bumper.[:D]

Let me see.

Thanks Tornado for ur prompt response!

If your first priority is safeguarding your car's bumper than go with a wrap but a transparent one. Which will protect your bumper and no issues with colour change.
I have seen a similar in 3M centre.

Even bigggerr NOOOOO from my side. I agree with tornado78. Go for 3M transparent. If scratched then pill off the sheet but dont destroy the beauty :please:

I am no more excited about Honda City [glasses] but is there anyone who wish to exchange with my verna -- [:D]

Does the new Verna top end come with LEDs in the projector headlamp housing as well as in the fog lamp housing (like in your car)? So you have two DRLs?
