Best is a 90mm hole with a Hella driving light peeping through, like on the P1.

Covers just look cheap, IMHO.

Horses for courses.

If you want to put your fog covers in, or your like Lee and dont have mich of an option unless you want your intercooler pipes on view, then maybe consider something different for the fog cover. Who says you must have the OEM product stuck on the cover?!?!

On my previous UK300 I had mesh ones with STI stenciled on. On my current STI I have one with STI Tech....... and one with the CAIK, and that not becuase im un-decided lol

Replacing ones that were originally there when the car was new with the same or a different colour ie white or black instead of pink definatly doesn't fall into that section .

Hi Jeff: I was wondering the same? Of course we fitted your FMIC about a year ago.
Leecalcars: If yours is a Hybrid GT or GT2 and I suspect you do, you should have no problems with Hella or PIAA spots. Jeff has Hella spots, I have PIAA, spots on one car and driving lights on the other.
Sounds like a fitting issue.
If you need help give me a ring.

Just for clarity there is no problem with spot lights, aircon, P1 lights etc. etc. etc. on any of the Hybrid kits and for those that have problems with the pipe under the engine bed on the GDB, again this is a fitting issue which we can help you resolve so the pipe under the engine bed is not the lowest part of the car and you can refit your plastic undertray, providing you do not run tubular headers which will melt your tray.

A set of good spots or driving lamps make night time driving out of town that much safer. Stickers or spots? Some of us prefer the advantages from spots.
