The Type R emblems make the GD and the GE look so much better IMO

Bumper stays on! very simple. One bolt sticking out the front of the bezels, pull the whole fog light assembly out, and change bulb.

I believe i looked into those and they were a bit outta my price range. Ive had the luminics in my civic and they looked nice and yellow.

Bulbs were off ebay too, (im an ebay whore) for about $17 shipped i believe. Type R emblems were sold as a pair for about $70 plus $16 shipping. RS emblem was $37 with shipping.

how exactly did you want your fog lamps to look? I really want my fogs to have a soft yellow over the really dark yellow-amber color some bulbs put out. Is this what you ran into?
