Bump to that!


plus, i wanted to get some of your opinions on how I should go about this install. So i'm going back home this weekend and will have my parent's garage, plus all my tools to my disposal, so I could do the entire install this weekend, however i've been planning on having my front bumper repainted (the douche at the state inspection place scraped the front corner while doing a brake check...)

Anyways, i figured it would be useless to install the fogs to just have to remove them for the bumper to be repainted. I figured i can get the wiring harness installed this weekend and maybe cut the bumper to fit the fogs correctly, however, not put in the final screws that will hold the fog in place. The only downside to this would be that I would be rolling around without the black inserts in the front of the bumper (in other words, 2 big gaping holes in the bumper) until I find time to get the bumper repainted and install the fogs.

What do yall think I should do? Should I just do that...and maybe find a way to jerryrig the black pieces back in place?

IMO since you do not have any plans/time to get the bumper painted right now I would install everything and have them working. It is only a few screws that will be holding the fogs in place and those can be removed in a minute or 2. Also once you take the bumper off for the first time you'll see how easy it is to take off and put back on.

To get the bumper off you need to open the hood, remove the plastic radiator cover (there should be 9 clips and 2 plastic philips head screws) Then you will be able to pop the grill off. On each corner of the bumper where it meets the fender there is a philips head screw that needs to be removed, and on the botton of the bumper there are 4 more clips and 4 bolts that need to come out. Once they are all out you can pop the cover off.

I know that is not the most clear description ever, but I couldnt find the tutorial I used when taking my bumper off and everything else I saw was pretty vague...

Link to 06 Bumper Removal. Careful with the clips too, they cost a few bucks to replace.

So today I got pulled over for having fog lights on. My question is it illegal to have fog lights on when there is no fog out but in poor cloudy about to rain weather. I have projector fog lights aimed down. so there was no way it was blinding.

LIFE SUCKS!!!  :sad:

You definately need to go to court and fight it.  in the meantime research local statutes on automobile lighting, and more specifically fog lights.  they are a safety feature, and are an available option through the manufacture

I got a warning, so I cant go to court. Does warnings go on my record? I really do not want a record like this on there. Makes no sense. I talked to a guy at the dealership and he was cracking up when I told him I got pulled over for fog lights.

Don't think it hurts too much. On the other hand, are those retro'd inside inspire housings or just projectors on OEM garnish?

Fog lights are illegal in MA, and RI for that matter if there is not present weather conditions. I got a ticket for it about 7 years ago, and tried to fight it. Major fail in MA court.

What happen??

well considering its not a nice day out today, visibility was low... which makes sense for me to turn on fog lights.
