Front fog lights
Has anybody installed it themselves? The dealer charges $200 extra to install them. I'm wondering if the bumper has precut holes (I havent gotten my brz yet). Also how hard is the wiring?

The kit is supposed to include replacement covers with mounts, should be doable in an evening.

Don't pay anyone 200 dollars to do this its super easy. Grab a buddy some beers and spend the afternoon doing it. The hardest thing about this install was drilling the stupid hole for the on off switch. Just make sure you have the right drill and you'll be set.
