Didn't you have a brake light originally?

Just noticed you don't have fog lights either. How much will they cost to have installed?

yeah i had the brake light i just wanted it to blend in a bit more so i sprayed it with light tint. the fog light kit costs £149.20 but i need to make sure it is ok for uk roads. i found it at http://www.oemvag.es/en/6j-2008/583-kit-de-faros-antiniebla.html

am about to contact them to see if they are road legal for the uk. if it turns out that they aint any good for the uk then i will put two cold air intakes in or one real and one fake. will keep you posted

Just looked at that link you put up, you need the honeycombe grilles don't you for the foglights?

That shape in the pic won't fit in the space will it?

Is this what you need, Char?

Might be a long way for you to go for it though.

I'm liking the mods the OP is doing, just little touches like bulbs and things which tend to go un-noticed by many!

Yeah quite a way, thats just a sport bumper though like I've already got. the FR bumper has the grooves above the fog lights so false advertising.

Thanks though!

No worries, only came across it by accident really, just saw it and remembered this thread. Showing my lack of knowledge on mk5s I guess :p

Costing quite a bit though isn't it? In total with the spraying (i know £80) and the fogs etc. You gonna install those yourself?

I know someone who has said they can install the fogs for me for a tenna. I need a new bumper anyway so I thought I will go for a more sporty look.
