I don't think so. I think it would look weird with that big of a fog light.

yea.. but "only 2"'is a big hole after you cut it. I personally wouldn't but its up to you. try taking a piece of cardboard, or even the cover for the light and somehow attach it to the valence where the light would be.. and leave it there for a week, see how you like it after that.


hell, 33s to 35s was 'only' 2"...

actually, the Piaa series 510 are 4" in diameter. they'll fit a lot better.

more expensive, though.

I was just contemplating doing this myself the other day. Unfortunately I have to do some bumper hacking because I don't have factory fogs.
