on the back of the bumper where the fog lights go on there should be a cut out line.

i recently did fogs on my EM1 and the supposed marks on the back werent there, so what i did was take the housing and from the back of the bumper trace and cut out the hole inside the housing where the fog light itself goes, then test fit, ofcourse the first or second time you cut it will not fit, but after each time you cut out a little more material and after a few tries it should be nearly perfect,

P.S. the housing is fairly bigger than what needs to be cut out so even if you cut a little too big you shouldnt have a problem, but absolutely make sure you cut a little bit at a time, test fit, cut more, and repeat the process


sorry no pics, digi is broke

i did mine freestyle on a freshly painted bumper, its not that hard, like it said, take the bumper off, put the housing on the backside of the bumper, mark for the fog light, and cut it out, then test fit(it wont fit the first time) and cut a little more each time until it fits properly, as long as you take your time and dont rush you will be fine
