You will either have to grind a little off the lip of your grill area to fit or some off te fog light. Your stock washer tank may have to be relocated(I just removed mine) depending on how far out in the grill you mount the fog light on the passenger side. Oh and I had to remove all of the air deflector things too, but thankfully they fit with no issues with my greddy intercooler. I think they go into the grill about 3-4 inches. Good luck. I actually had one of te light bulbs go out on me this week. Gonna order some new ones soon. I can snap a few more pics, showing how far they go back, if you like.

Wonder why everyone sticks to yellow fogs? Trying to be JDM a bit much?

Why not a nice blue / match the color of the lights?

no problem, when do you plan on attempting this? it will probably be 2 weeks before I change the bulbs out and take some more pics. I don't think I took any when I did the mod, but I'll look tonight.

Because that would defeat the purpose of a FOG light. If you have ever driven in the rain with yellow foglights, you would know that the yellow color works wonders in adverse weather compared to your typical color matched foglights.

I used to run 8000k lows with 6000k fogs in the OE headlight setup (seems weird but it matched perfectly due to the inequalities in the OE ballast vs aftermarket) and they did so-so in adverse weather. I recently went to 6000k lows with 3000k fogs and it is significantly better than my previous setup.

Well, not before two weeks. I just got my car out the body shop so I will be detailing soon and then installing my new headlights. By then you should have the pics right?

Hey, can you post some more pics like at night with fog lights and headlights on, and vice versa. Thanks

for the guys with yellow bumper fog lights. do you still use the headlight fog? did you just color match the headlight fog to the hi/lo headlight color and make the bumper fog yellow?
