i just picked up the r33 front bumper and i was wonder is any one knows if i can retain my factory fog light? do i have to make bracket? how has seen this before?

 

OEM bumper with OEM fogs > any aftermarket bumper...


it just looks cleaner.

i'd say go with aftermarket fogs, it would be very hard and time consuming (not to mention its questionable if they'd look good) to retrofit them.

 

I agree. I'd try to find some aftermarket fogs that fit the new bumper. Of course if you dont want to spend additional money on something you already have (and working) then just try to fit them in somehow.

OEM fogs usually sell pretty quickly and for a good price.

 

i know what your saying, it's just that the opening in both the oem bumper and the new R33 bumper look similer in shape and size, i just think the spaceing from the support it farther away. so i guess no one has tryed this before?

 

If u have to keep them, i would say somehow put them behind the mesh, that way they're hidden until u turn them on. that is wut i plan to do anyhow...i think...

 

i think i am going to try to fiberglass a bracket to hold the existing foglights and mounts. i will have to let you know how it turns out.

 

I have a friend that tried to have it fit, but he put the fogs behind the bumper cover. If you can try and trim the fog light holes to make them come all the way through, there is enough space for it to work.

 

did your friend pull it off? how did it look when he was done? how much time did he have invested in triming the holes?

 

he didnt trim the holes so it doesnt look perfectly right.. but heres a picture..

 

Thanks,
that helped me a million time over i know know exactly what i have to do, and i think it should come out perfect, and i will be sure to post pictures when i am done. thanks again

 

damn taht looks better than aftermarket fogs
