Carbon wrapped fog inserts?!

[SaMk2]

Im looking to get the aforementioned ^^

I'm just wondering if anyone can give me an idea on installing them!?

Bumper off? Or can you get to it by removing an arch liner?

All input appreciated!

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

you can just jimmy them out with a screwdriver mate.

I had just CF covers, and they fell off!

Hard to wrap easy to fit and get out dont need bumper off

For £60 you can buy real cf ones from streamline

i did mine nice and easy to do...

Hahah thanks for the comments guy, no one's given me any detailed installation information yet though!

Apart from jimmy it out of course, of which I'm worried I'll damage the paint.

You can get to them from inside the inner aches. Jack it up and take wheels off for more room but you can get away without doing that. Doesn't take long though! Then pull away the inner sleeve. This is just clipped and popped on. One side has more clearance than the other but can't remember what one. Undo the 2 torx bolts holding the foglight in per side. (T15 I think) then use a flat ended screwdriver to push down on the fog surround clips pushing it out at the same time. Then it just pops our and your free to go

Look great until they get stone chipped and water gets under the laquer then they look like someones jizzed on em

Yeah mine are streamline ones and they have to be bonded onto the bumper. As mentioned they look great until there stone chipped to hell

But more costly than buying just the wrap and doing it yourself, plus you still got to remove you existing ones to fit the eBay ones.

I've been thinking about doing this. Can you get like a glossy finish with the wrap?

 

[Jekyll]

Mark, are they fully skinned blanks?

They are mate, they are a mates, he has the holes filled with fiberglass and smoothed off then sent them to Chris Powell off here to have them wrapped in carbon

 

[Jekyll]

Certainly different. Never seen that before.
