What The Fxxk??? 2003 Foglamp

IF ACURA REMOVES THE FOG LAMPS, you totally expose the coolant reserve tank!!

Uhhh...I dunno but that's why I never took out my fog lamps in the first place on the '01 model.

The radiator reserve tank that the old road lamps use to block. Now with those road lamps gone, you can totally see the radiator reserve tank. Not to mention some jerk can just stick a long blunt object to make a leak in the tank.

You can't paint it black either...

So are there new OEM road lamp replacement/upgrade to real FOGS??

I am reserving judgement until I get my hands on the dealer options list. I think Acura is going to make real fog lights an option ... we'll see soon.

LOL that's NOT the radiator overfill tank. the overfill tank has to be level with the top of the actual radiator. PLUS it's not that far down anyway, it's directly between the battery and the dirver side headlight houseing

Type S is right, I had to take it out to re-align my headlights ... it is not that large. ... that is where my CAI filter is right now...

Not that it makes sense since the HP numbers did not change, but do you think Acura planned it that way for a CAI ?? Not sure it would come from the dealer that way, but ....

well...I highly doubt it's just a big hole.

I doubt very highly that it's just a big hole where the fog lamps used to be. More than likely (don't know for sure until we see one up close, can anyone at the LA Autoshow take a pic of it??) they probably put a mesh grill type material there where the fog lamps used to be.

Again until someone get's a real up close picture of the hole where the housing used to be, we won't be sure.

Why didn't they just change the shape of the mold for the lower part of the bumper cover so that the TL's driving lights would fit ????

There is black plastic there, no hole.

Agreed, MDanial has pics up. There's "blockoff" plates in there now.

And for those with CAI, you know what shows up if you remove the drivers side road lamp housing.....
