Help figuring out what Fog Lights I have

I have a 2006 TL 6 speed. I'm starting to do some TLC to the appearance. My foglights are busted and I am trying to replace them and the foglight grills. I bought foglights from a member on here a couple months ago and I figure I'd put them up to mine just to see how it's going to look before ordering other stuff and taking bumper off. The dogs I bought on here that are suppose to fit and completely different than my current ones. Most of all my current ones are much smaller. I need help figuring out whether mine are custom made into the bumper or if someone can direct me to the right products to buy. Now I don't don't know if the 07 08 foglight grills will fit so I didnt order them yet. Or maybe the guy sold me the wrong fogs

Those are OEM 03-05 accord sedan fog lights retrofitted (custom fit) to your bumper.

You have options of buying just the replacement fog lights (excludes the wiring and bezels) from Honda for a hefty price, look for them at a junk yard for cheap (lots of hondas and acuras share the same fog light. note: NOT bezel!)
OR you can buy brand new aftermarket ones that may or may not be glass on ebay.

Can't just swap the grills without modication. The fogs are a different shape for the 07-08.

I'd like to replace the grill on it as well. I'm looking for stock 06 grill right? And then I'll have to cut them?

Aw, that's too bad, but I"m glad to hear that you have some new headlights on the way And yes, if you want to replace the grill, you will need an OEM 04-06 front bumper lower grill. You will need to remove the bumper, remove the grill, cut the girll, test fit, and cut some more

I recently retrofit a set of Honda Inspire fog lights and replaced the lower fog light grills HD Small Diamond Aluminum Grill Mesh Sheet from customcargrills.com

The reason I chose this mesh is because I also replaced my front grill in the center of my bumper: https://acurazine.com/forums/third-g...4-06-a-972353/

that came out great! I have one more question for you. Before I didnt know they were Honda dogs I actually bought a set 07 08 fogs with LEDs. Snlince I have to cut to fit the grille in can I fit an 07 08 grill in so I don't have to sell those?

Most people either retrofit a set of 2003-2005 Honda Accord fog lights, which still require some cutting of the fog lights, or 2006-2007 Honda Inspire fog lights, which don't require cutting of the fog lights.

The 07-08 Acura TL grills and fog lights are not a direct plug and play and will not fit the 04-06 bumpers.

Yes, since someone has already retrofitted for you, you can just pop these bad boys right in.
