Summer/Fall '08 - A little E/JDM

just cut into ur bumper, thats wut i did for my fogs lol

For once I agree with Lemon! WTH is this world coming to!

Hahaha


Damage - he's right, You need to cut more to the right and left into your bumper to mount them more spread apart - fitting the curve of the bumper; not in towards the bumper - because the support is there.

We did cut part of the support, there is an extra flap of metal on each side, I'm willing to have more of the bumper support cut, the car is parked for awhile now, but I'm going to have to look again and see what we can do to have them fit a bit more flush. Appreciate the suggestions though, guys, thank you.

Just put them further apart, not deeper in. It would be easier than cutting the bumper support, and they would fit the curves completely, that's what I meant to say.


For example, look at how far apart Sakura's lights are to accomodate the 01-02 sedan bumper:

His bumper isn't stock, there was alot of fabrication done to it to get them to fit like that. Part of the problem with trying to move them further apart was the fact that the bumper/rad support was in the way. It would require cutting in to that metal to move them further apart.

I would like them further apart, but it depends on how much needs to be cut off to accomodate that.

So D, more edm parts are on the way? Thats sick man.
About the fogs mines was mounted by my bodyman and yes it is an aftermarket front bumper. There used to be something behind it that prevents it from being mounted but now its gone. I can even push the fogs way more in and 01-02 sedan fronts are better when it comes to fitting them.

Hey Ron, yeah, at least one EDM goodie to be on it's way.

Yeah, I'm hoping to see if some more fabrication can be done to get them to sit a little further apart/back. I don't mind some more cutting being done, but I don't want to compromise the rad/bumper support either.

they could def sit a tad better than that you just have to play a little.
not the best pix to show fitment but see how it sits ALMOST flushed

no major work was done to fit it right except i had IC piping right behind it which is why the brackets needed to be adjusted to accommodate them.

I think it looks good...the fogs are a very lil problem but the sexiness of the retro might take all eyes off the fogs

Shahid, helpful pics, thank you!

Mo/Mojeans, thanks, I may have to get a new bumper, because there would be a gap on the inside part of the fogs where the lower grill was cut to fit them.
