I do too, but I don't like THESE fog lights. They block airflow to the awesome SST we have, and they're too round for my tastes; throws off the angled lines of the car. I remarked to myself how they look like awkward dimples on a mean face lol

I'm probably going to try some LED bars and see how I like the look of them, kind of like the concept X and somewhat the concept pictures of the RA sportback. Only problem is finding an LED bar that's actually bright enough so it doesn't look like it's just for show

I'm about ready to just take mine out saw off the brackets and put some black wire mesh behind the bumper to make it look oem.

there hasn't been an update for a while

but didn't notice that this picture kind of shows the fog light housing that I was referring to. It's part of the bumper, so it will need to be sawed off

Not bad. Will definately increase the airflow to the SST cooler.

I had a customer who did the exact same thing to his RA lol (like 2 weeks after he bought it)

I'm not a fan of how it looks, but everyone has their opinion

where did you buy your wire mesh for this btw?

I stopped by Home Depot today and they only carried one massive sheet of it (usually used to make a fence). I'm working on my own LED fogs but I need to cut out a new mesh

Has onyone tested to see if this makes a significant difference for the TCSST... or is it just marginal?
