The fog lights would look better in the fog light holes definitely. Be prepared for a nasty install tho...the 99-01 TLs are a biatch to custom fit fog lights. Do a search on fog lights (posted by Songoku and myself), and you'll see what's involved. Good luck!

Do you think the fog lights off the RL would fit a little bit better than others???

Good question....what you are gonna need to find out is how deep that RL fog light goes into the corner pockets (if it even fits at all). Don't forget, there's not much mounting room (depth wise) to fit larger size fog lights. But I'm guessing that you will run into the same problems as the aftermarket fog lights - it won't fit well without some custom work to make them fit.

It all depends on how big your fog lights are. The larger the fog lights, the more custom fit you will need to get them fit good. For example, my PIAA 912 Stealth requires a lot of custom work to make them fit. Any size larger than my PIAA 912's will probably not fit. But if you were to get smaller sized fog lights, they would probably fit without any hacking into the frame. But you run the risk of having smallish looking fog lights and looking dorky and out of place (small fog lights, big corner pockets - it doesn't match too good). So really it's your choice on which size fog lights you want.

We tried almost everything.
- Acura RL, Honda Odyssey, Nissan Maxima, Lexus IS300, etc.

Like Patrick said, you can find similar shape fog lights. But, unless you find exact same shape fog lights for our fake hole, you need major modification.
