Accord Foglight Install WHICH LOOKS BETTER??!?!?
I cant decide which grill I want to use! I have the type S grill I cut first which looks good but the stock grill has the potential to look even cleaner. Also keep in mind when im finished the chrome bar wont go so far over the foglight.

I'm not a fan of chrome in the lower grill so I vote for the base without chrome- it looks cleaner IMHO of course.

They both look nice.
I like the base but that's cause I'm biased =)
I agree, if you're not adding any other chrome accents to tie it in use the base. Then again. You can keep your uncut base ones to revert to stock if you sell the car and sell someone else your fogs

Well most likely I will never take these out because removing my Aspec lip was very very difficult I must have prepped the surface really well because that double sided tape would not budge! I dunno what to do i'm taking a break now to think it over. I feel like the base grill transitions better into the foglight shroud but I managed to make the type S looks very good too.

LOTS of cutting lol the first side took like 7+ hours but I was messing with the type S grill too. The next side took half the time knowing where to make all the cuts. Not completely done but most all of the cutting is done I went a bit further then most who usually install these lights pointing out to the side.

Make sure you get the glass housing and a glare shield.
For reference, since it wasn't mentioned, the non type S referenced above is my car. Hope the pics I sent you helped with the install.
PS...holy hell, 10+ hours on this!!! lol...I took 4 for mine and when I helped a friend we had em cut and in in an hour. Wiring took a little longer. You'll become a pro at this!

I decided to go all out and buy the real OEM accord fogs. In my experience in the last 8 years modding my Acura legend I learned quite a few times how crappy aftermarket parts can be. I would cheap out only to have the parts break/fail and eventually get the OEM replacement instead in the end which always lasted much longer. Oh by the way the OEM Accord fog lights I have DO NOT have a glass housing, looks to be a high impact plastic.

So u got the oem fogs and did u get the type s lower grills and the chrome strip and u ended up putting the base lower grill with the chrome strip is that strip from a type s?

Damn there are more variation then I realized. So there are two Type S grills one with chrome and one with a black bar with a different shape. The non type S 07-08 is satin silver. Now I need to decide if I stick with the chrome on the bottom I need to change the top grill to chrome. Maybe I should just order the satin silver bars?
