I have the WW RS kit & I was wondering if OEM fogz (USDM or JDM) effect the front lip in any way .... fitment, discoloration of paint, burning due to high temps, etc. ???? I'm hoping to buy some in the near future & I just had some concerns??? Thanks.

The only problem you will ever have is getting the plastic cover off/on the fogs. It's not really a problem; you just have to maneuver it around the kit. You kinda have to get it stuck to actually pull it out. Other than that, nothing. (discoloring, paint, etc.)

Andy, yeah I suuuuuure do.....
aahh coo, thanks Charlie...... clean lude by the way
UUUrggggg I hate that pic that WW uses.... it does the kit NO justice.
Hey Charlie... is your kit burning (rear lip, from exhaust) I don't mean to call you out like this, it's just that I'm having the same prob. I was just wondering how you went about fixing it.

haha, no worries, because yes it was. When I first got the kit on the exhaust was touching the kit, it melted the kit and dried up the paint. So I just cut out a nice hole so the exhaust doesnt touch. But now there is just carbon build up .

haha coo.... It was doing the same thing to mine so I custom riveted a piece of sheet metal to it and problem fixed.... actually looks kinda cool. I'll see if I can post some pics.

Just curious, has your rear lip warped due to the cut? I heard that urethane does this or something like that. I was thinking about getting that kit, but I'd want it cut like that if it didn't warp.
Mine kinda melted and cracked the paint a TINY little bit the first day I put it on... but I just welded a longer hanger on the exhaust so that there's about 3/4 of an inch of space between the muffler and the lip.
There is a slight cutout for the exhaust... but it's not very big.
another sollution would be to find some black heat resistant material and stick it or affix it somehow to the portion of the bumper where the pipe sticks out, curl it a bit upwards (like how the black molding looks on, say, the audi A6 [or S6?])
