front HFP lip first or fogs first?

I just ordered my jdm yellow fogs, and also thinking of ordering the front HFP lip for now. So my question is, should i install the fogs first? or wait for the front lip then install the fogs after the front lip? any input on those who have done it would muchly be appreciated. thanks. :)

i've never done it, but do fogs first, it requires removing the bumper. i just think it'd be way easier this way. but idk, it might not matter.

personally i would wait till you have the kit so you only have to take the bumper off 1 time

i dont think applying the lip requires removal of the bumper, its just screws and adhesive that holds it on. it screws onto the bottom of the bumper and the sides in the wheel well and has tape on the larger side portion.

hahaha. ya, done it at least 4 times since i cleared my headlights, pnp hid, retro hid (2x). i'm just lazy especially now that it's raining and cold. but we'll see, maybe i'll be too excited and just install the damn fog lights when they get in.
