hey everyone i was curious about puttin some foglights on my 90 crx. i have the 91 si front bumper on my crx right now but i was lookin at it and then i went on ebay and saw that it looks like the fog lights from a 01-04 civic have almost the same shape as the fog light holes? i was wonderin if anyone else has ever thought about this or done this? i was thinkin that it might work?

 

might be a good project! give it a shot!

 

You can always cut your bumper to fit

 

IMO....round/oval fog lights look out of place on our square cars. Give it a shot though.

That's what I was thinking. I think that rectangle fog lights look best on a crx.

 

yea i kno. i was rockin the rectangular foglights not jdm but the normal ones that u can find anywhere and they didnt sit right. i was thinkin for about $35 it might be worth it to try and if it dont work i could always settle down with buyin some jdm lights. didnt the ef civics have some jdm projector foglights?? ill keep u guys psoted on wat happens.

 

man i what i would do for some oem square yellow fog lights with the OEM button. if any one can give me a link for some on sale. even the generic squares i can paint yellow.

 

i did my own custom job with some autozone fogs, didnt even have to cut out the bumper vents i just had to drill a hole to slip the wires through...looks similar to the picture but with square yellow fogs


here it is on my usdm bumper off the car...

took me like 3 days of fiberglass, sanding, bondo, and just thiknking of how to make it work

 

alright check it out everyone. i decided to go through and oder the fogs last week. i just got em in and here are some initial pics of the lights sittin on top of my spare si bumper that i have. i am gonna make it work on this bumper first b4 i fit them to the bumper on my rex.
pic of the passenger side light

pic of the light sittin under the bumper

fog light sittin over the fog light hole on the bumper.

i plan on doin the whole thing tomorrow ill take pics and keep u guys posted on how i do and how it comes out. wish me luck guys!

 

thats going to be pretty badass it looks like.

 

thanks for the support if all goes well i think i will end up gettin sum yellow bulbs to try n somewhat keep jdm look, not quite but who knows.

 

you could always paint the lenses with see through yellow paint or yellow stained glass paint. i"ve seen it done before!

 

i didnt think about that one. hmmmm i've never done that before tho. where can i get that paint?

 

That's going to require some massive butchery of that bumper but I think once you're done it's gonna look badass.

My fogs needed a significant amount of cutting for it to fit flush to the bumper. Did a bit of fab work as well

 

i kinda figured that it would. thas y im gonna use my spare bumper first and not mess up my original bumper first.

 

it started raining so my plans kinda put off a bit i dont feel like gettin sick. but here is as far as i got.....keep in mind these are cell phone pics so they arent the best.


wat do u guys think i got this far in about 45min. i have more detailed pics of everything im doin as far as modding the fog light holes if all goes well i will repost this with all info.

 

looks pretty decent..where are you going from here?

 

I've always wondered how the '99/'00 si fogs would look on a crx. The ones you're installing are sort of like those....

 

im still gonna try n make em fit a lil more. but i am left with a gap on the inner side of the fog lights. but then im thinkin that it could be a good thing seein as i have cold air intake and it would allow for more air to enter. theses lights are for 01-04 civics. a lil more trimmin and i should be set. not bad for less than an hour of work dont u agree????

 

this looks like a great project. cant wait for the final result

 

if anyone can guide me to some rectangular fog lights for sale. do you guys think that the EK fog lights would fit in nicely?

 

i have two sets of 3rd gen prelude fogs for sale if anyone is interested. they are the same as crxmadman's.

 

updates?

your last update kinda looked like booty. please.... prove me wrong and get them to fit properly.

 

yea i kno i lagged, i had midterms last week so i didnt have much time to work on it but i have the next 2 days off.

 

I got some jdm look alikes for sale. They are not the apc ones fron auto zone either. The apc ones have the black on the front of them covering part of the yellow lens. These are rectangular and there is nothing bu yellow lens on the front.
