Default CAN EG FOGLIGHTS BE TRIMMED TO FIT WITH A FRONT MOUNT?

Just like the topics says , 95 hatch and i wanna keep the fogs . I havent got the piping on yet but i heard the brackets may be able to be trimmed to fit with the intercooler piping , can anyone verify? If not i guess ill be selling the fogs.

That only works on some FMIC's. My PTE intercooler has the inlet and oulet in the middle. I had to ditch my fog lights to fit it. You could however modify the intercooler pipes to go around it - which is what im thinking about doing. I only had a problem with the passanger side pipe, you have to run the pipe low to fit it.

I was able to use the fog lights with F-MAX piping and a F-MAX FMIC (my old setup) but my new setup not so much. I was to lazy to redo my piping since i just had it made.

I have a JRC and there's no way I could get them to fit.

I only have a 6" JRC and I had a hard time getting the bumper to fit...I could cut some more off the charge pipes but it's not worth it for some fogs.

i say forget the fogs. which is more important? do yo live in a foggy area or just wanna be cool and drive around during the day with yellow lights?

BTW the greddy type 31 IC fits like a charm.

jrc 6in won't work with the foglights for sure. i'm pretty sure if you get a intercooler with the end tanks all the way at the bottom and flip it upside down, than you could. but intercooelrs with the end tanks in the middle won't work.

Depends on the cooler... some you can make fit, with others there is no way... I have a JRSC 5" and there's no way in hell you could make them fit.
