Well tonight as I was under the car changing the drop link I was wondering what the flap in the arch was hiding. Looked inside and found the mounting brackets for the fogs, but I dont have any holes.
Has anybody ever cut these holes out before? Any recommendations? How hard is it to do? Any how to guides lurking around anywhere?
Thanks

im sure you need a bumper with the fog holes in them, suppose you could cut them yourself, but imagine would be hard to get a decent cut on them for it to look right

You would still have to buy the fogs and wire them in making a seperate function switch for them, in which case you would be better off buying a front bumper with fogs already in them
I remember someone else wiring in fogs had to get the light control stalk to match or somethng

I have the fogs allready. It wouldnt be too much hassel to get the stalk as mine is Pre-Plexed. The multiplexed are the ones that stalks are quite fussy with.

Look very carefully ... I think there is part of the outline on the back of the bumper.
But remember the ones with holes are moulded in ... you will have a sharp flat edge around yours.

I think someone asked about this a day or two ago, there marked on the back where the holes need to be.

some one has done it on here, but i didnt see the point myself, so it can be done but must be a hassle to get it spot on
