Re: grille and fog lights
im sorry you dont like them tgoirocz but the fact of the matter is that if you dont like them you could at least politely say there not my favorite and add a different idea instead of being a complete ******* and not thinking that theres people out there that have different opinions on things. as for the louvers they are made from plastic so they really dont have any sexual orientation so unless you just got out of the mental ward for thinking that inanimate objects can talk then please keep your comments too yourself. it is uncalled for. thank you now can we please get back to the subject at hand it would be appreciated

Re: grille and fog lights
thats youre opinion and im broke so unless your gonna give it to me i dont wanna buy it. i really like it it matches my rear window louvers. but saying that no one likes them isnt completely true there are people that like them, and it doesnt matter its my car, not yours so i really dont appreciate that at all

Re: grille and fog lights
btw how do the lights mount, do the mount to the actual insert or the bumper and then the insert surrounds it?

Re: grille and fog lights
lets drop the personal opinion stuff about who likes them please. and they bolt to the metal bumper so any insert id just placed in front of it correct. does anyone have pictures of theirs that has done this?

Re: grille and fog lights
ive done this before in HS and it looked ok but the louvers will get hot and warp alittle. dont think they were meant to be next to fog lights. i would just buy a used grill insert since the material is meant to be alittle tougher sitting next to fog lights.

Re: grille and fog lights
it wasnt bad, if u were up close and eye f__k it you can easily tell. but it didnt look terrible. im sorry i dont have pics, it was very long ago. i mounted it on the bottom part of the grill just above the spoiler.you have to cut into the grill though. not sure if your willing to do that.

Re: grille and fog lights
your opinion doesnt require everyone to agree with you. if you want to believe that and be a hardass while debating about it. then fine go ahead but get the **** off my thread if you want to do it because thats not the point of the topic
