i wanna fix up my body this summer so while im at the shop i wanna get it done right the first time. i would like fogs but dont know if i wanna cut the holes for em myself. here r my options. lemme know what you guys think

options:
1. cut out bumper and do fogs then bring to body shop. dont know how nice this will come out, esp me + dremel = noob.
2. buy new ebay bumper with fogs cutout. then bring to shop
3. shave/smooth out the ridge cutout area of the fog lights on the bumper. then bring to shop (or let them do this for me) so no fogs

 

Cutting the bumper is not that difficult. There is acutally a template made by Nissan specifically for the job; it comes with the OEM foglight kit. I don't know if they will sell it separately but you might chick into it. I know it will be cheaper than buying a new bumper or taking it to a body shop to get the work done. After you cut the holes, they don't have to be 100% perfect because there is trim that goes around the edges to make it uniform. I didn't use a dremmel, I just used a sharp razor knife and mine look just fine. Just buy the whole kit from Nissan.

 

Do you already have the fogs?? if not, just do a 97+ front end conversion..

Nice work on the cutout jltibbs.

 

^^very nice, just start in the middle and work ur way out, just go slow...

 

any links to the nissan package? i know oem is mad expensive.

i could do 97+ but i like my 95/96 for some reason and dont feel i have to change the front end.

 

looks good

 

Jltibbs, is that the burger from your trunk on the grille or somewhere else? Maybe my eyes are tricking me, but that looks like it came off a Titan.
