Default Ridicloius Fog Light quote

I was lookin around to getting the fog light set and having it installed. I was quoted 225 for the fogs and almost the same with install! wtf?? Anyone recommend a better solution/pricing?

I paid 175.00 on eBay with free shipping. I installed it myself. I would say have someone help you get the front bumper cover off so it doesn't get scratched. If you look close the the bottom grill there are lines where you cut it. It was easyier than I thought. Just plug in the wires and switch your done. I waited till I got my billit grill before I did mine so I could do it all at once.

Just like above, The install is easy, read the instructions and take your time. I did my install in 2 hours time. Like mentioned above, have someone help you remove the bumper cover so you don't scratch it. Make sure you have a LARGE enough blanket to lay down in front of your car for the bumper to rest on. Good luck!

Hey bashor1, so you had to cut your billet grills too? was it much harder since its a differnt material? Im thinking of gettin a grill craft or something similar/cheaper. And that looks harder to cut since its not plastic..

heres a link to the grill craft

Many aftermarket grills ask you to specify if you have factory fogs or not, they have two sets of grills (pre-sized), depending on your needs. Grillecraft may not do this.

I didn't cut the billit gril...I did cut the factory one for foglights and then installed the billit grill, I just waited till I got both to make it easier to install...where did I set my beer??? gotta go
