yah if ur ok with them then doesn;t matter..

ur right from that picture they look good... no one is going to stare at your fog lights from less then a foot away ..

u can probably see cut lines on a lot of them if u look as close as ur picture is taken.. i should go check mine out

I think what makes your car look weird is you have stock ex rims that are FTMFL. You should save up and buy new rims it will improve the over all appearance of your car. The fogs are fine its just the rims IMO.

well you said you bought them at autocityimports.com and there $100.00. You get what you pay for. they are not the exact same lights you would get from the dealer they are OEM replica. i just bought a set from college hills honda and i dont have any of these problems. by the way i put them in my self. so maybe i did a better job than the shop you took it too. which is very likely from what i have seen from your pics.

i took a really close look at the lights and it seems that the drivers side fog light is set back to far so when it gets moved up I think it will look better, I am going to make them fix any of there mistakes tomorrow when I take it in to get them to fix the switch. Oh something funny/ annoying to add is that on my way home on friday the switch they put on fell off.... it was only held on by what looks like glue

it was the shop that did the work for me, and its not the housing pushed outward with the switch its the switch plate they pushed a little farther back but it isnt bad. I had them move one of the fog lights a little farther up so that they are even.

I'm pretty sure there are members here who have spare fog light switches.

The ebay fog lights break easily. So some people buy another set or two. Anyone have any switches to donate to people who wants a regular switch?

There's no "shield" surrounding the bulb like knowledge_6's.

See if the Honda dealer can sell you JUST the switch. Say yours broke or something.

from the picture i looks like they cut the hole plastic part around the foglight and just replaced it with something else.
