Default to fog light or not to foglight...Powered by FBP EM1 inside

alrighty guys, i've been contemplating about foglights for so long, and im indecisive. i was planning on either getting the yellow fogs from Password:JDM or either the oem fogs from HandAaccessories. the reason why i wanted it, was because my front end looked too plain. ...or should i leave it be w/o fogs?

i had the grill from the bumper cut out too. so i was also contemplating about that. should i leave my bumper like that, with no license plate? or should i be legit, buy a license plate relocator and relocate it on the right?

which ever one comes first in its category will be the one i will most likely go for. thanks for your guys' inputs.

handaaccessories, i believe sells the oem fogs for 130. arent the oem ones made by raybrigs?

plus, i heard good stuff about they yellow fogs from passwordjdm. it hasnt had any bad responses.

the only one i heard was bad, was the ones made by depo. those were crap.

so would you think it would look cleaner w/o them? or just because everyone has it, and you think its stupid

Do the fogs!!!


Then, rewire the foglight relay for independent fog control, stock wiring only allows the fogs to be on while the headlights are on.... bypass that relay and u can turn the foglights on with nothing else, or with just corner lights, that is baller status!!!

(PS if you are in VA your car will fail inspection with this mod)

Dont do the fogs for this reason. It looks cool and all but if something happens to one of your foglights/bezels you are screwed and left with a cut up front bumper. This is what happened to me.

OEM clear fogs from handaccessories. they aren't much more expensive than the password replicas and if you want to make em yellow, you can get the http://www.lamin-x.com film for them. it also protects your fogs from rock chips and road debris. hate to spend $130 on fogs just to have them get smashed up by rocks on the highway.
