foglight question with Euro R lip
i ordered a euro r lip from heeltoe and it should be here in a few weeks i hope and i was wondering what would i have to do to get the lip to fit over my my fogs since the euro r fog bezels has cut outs for the lip to pass through..or would i have to get the euro r bezels

I have an 05 with the Euro Accord Sport Wagon lip, and it would not work with the usdm fogs... I ended up selling the usdm's on ebay, and had to order jdm fogs and bezels.
The EuroR lip is much more common than the Wagon lip, so I'm sure you'll get a response specific to your situation... Good Luck!

I am not 100% sure but I don't think the euro r bezels will fit the oem/usdm fogs because the jdm fogs are a smaller size (someone please confirm this), you'll have to either get the jdm fogs and bezel or get the ebay jdm style ones and drill holes in the housing. There's a DIY thread on how to do this somewhere here, just do a search.

You can cut the usdm fog covers and then the euro or jdm lip will fit.

Saved myself 75$ from buying the housing
Ref: Looks just like this, for 75$!?!? I said **** that.
After 15 minutes of dremeling, the ebay jdm fog light housing fits perfect, even the screw hole is an exact fitment.
**NOTE** THIS WAS A TRIAL RUN ON MY BROKEN SET, BEFORE I WORK ON THE UNBROKEN SET THAT's ON THE CAR RIGHT NOW
Also, the ebay jdm fogs do not come with the cut lines like the real jdm ones do. so you have to figure it out.
just thought id throw this out there for those of you who want to save some $!

I don't think cutting the usdm covers will work because the euro r / ebay jdm fogs flare in while the usdm fogs don't go in at all.... I'm having the same problem now because my euro r lip is here and I don't know what to do with my usdm fogs!!! aghhhhh!!
