OEM Fogs and WW Big Mouth Front... - Honda Prelude Forum

L-U-R-C-H · 03-21-2003, 01:26 PM

Will I still be able to use my OEM fogs if I get the Wings West Big Mouth front bumper?

nope, oem fogs will only fit in OEM bumpers... you can fit a lip onto your front, and the fogs will fit, but they will not fit a WW Big Mouth kit without HEAVY modification of the bumper

That sucks. I wanted that WW Big Mouth kit bad. If I use the RS lip, it will work though?

YES

Where can I get the WW RS Lip? I didn't see it when I looked up my car on the Wing's West website.

It's the first one on the list.

Oh

I didn't realize that was it. How do you guys go about installing those anyway?

red92si · 03-21-2003, 02:01 PM

The lip kits attach with 3M double sided mounting tape and screws. If it were me, I would use as many screws as possible just to make sure that sucker is on there.

What if i kept with the Big Mouth and replaced the OEM fogs with some other kind of fog light installed behind the mesh. Would that work?

I think the mesh would diffuse the light. I know the turn signals are behind the mesh and they have to be visible enough to pass regulations so you never know. Probably depends on the brightness of fog light you get.

Man, this whole thing is screwed up. I got fogs installed on the car and I don't want some RS Lip that is held on by Duck Tape and screws. Who knows.

Despite the fact that it is only held on by screws and tape doesn't mean it won't be sturdy. If you do a decent job on install you shouldn't have any problems.

lurch, get the BM, sell me the oem fog then

vipastyle · 03-21-2003, 04:26 PM

Even if you were to get em custom fit on, they would look wicked weird...

L-U-R-C-H · 03-22-2003, 01:07 AM

I don't know what to do! I want fogs and I want the Big Mouth. I may have to just go with the RS Lip

MidNKight-lude · 03-22-2003, 01:35 AM

i want the OEM fogs too. also if you go to the member's rides you can find mine and Machine head's post. we both har RS kits on, but ther a few ppl with RS kit

vipastyle · 03-22-2003, 08:06 AM

options:
1) big mouth no fogs
2) rs with fog

think about it, a big mouth front with fogs will look very fawked up lookin. thats just my opinion though...

92 SI Ludester · 03-22-2003, 02:43 PM

well i went big mouth and never regreted it...i like the look of it and think that it stands out in a good way...but its your car, your choise

Unregistered · 03-22-2003, 02:56 PM

The 3M tape is actually reallllly damn strong, I have had it for about 1 1/2 years now, with no probs....as long as you mount it correctly you are fine.
