I agree with all of the above. The ACA HD/foglight HD combo is great. Also be sure to correctly aim the HD fog lights. If you don't, and they are aimed too high, you won't get the true benefit from them.
Installation is also easy, at least after you understand how to route the cabling to the left lights (it goes under the lip of the front bumper, using cable ties). While you have everything opened up, consider also adding new cornering lights (unless you like the stockers). [It's fun spending someone else's money.]

The modification replaces the original projector (which works, but could be better) with a Bi-xenon projector with superior optics:

My head lights should be here today or tomorrow.
I have JWs HIDs for the low beams in my stock head lights, can anyone tell me if they will fit in the new ACAs, I would like to think they would?

Sorry that is a negative. The ACA headlights require an H9 bulb. Your factory headlights use a 9006.
