yes, in the bumper.

I worked out the following today:

1. fogs weigh a lot
2. you look like a chav in a saxo/clio if you ever put them on
3. they are cheaper to remove and replace with airfeeds than buying morrettes

pics.....

Right , so yesterday I bashed my car into a fence , resulting in smashing my fog , and fucking the bumper.

Filled and sprayed the bumper but then I was left with a missing fog , but I wanted a cold air feed here anyway so perfect time to make one !

Stripped all the internals out of the fog , and smashed off the remaining glass , filled and sprayed the casing and fitted my feed through where the loom etc would go - PERFECT fit.

Sorry for the poor pic but its all very discreet !!







Thoughts ?
