Rear fog light on 2011 Nismo

mjdargan · 01-03-2016, 06:45 PM

Hey everyone,

I recently purchased a rear fog light from IJDMtoy and decided to convert my 2011 sport rear to the 2011 Nismo rear bumper. The rear I purchased doesn't have the housing for the fog light. I know I can purchase a diffuser from CS that has a housing for the fog light, but are there any other options? If I get the housing from EVO-R will I need to still have an opening created on the actual bumper that goes under the EVO-R housing? Hopefully this makes sense. Any information would greatly be appreciated.

I am not aware of any other cheap option.

Another not cheap option is to get a 2013-2014 rear bumper.

Cooltoy - Do you know if I get the CS or EVO R options will I have to actually have the body shop create a hole on the actual nismo bumper?

Looks like a hole is necessary. How will you route the wiring?

mjdargan · 01-03-2016, 08:25 PM

Ah, I know. I probably will just not even use the fog light.

cooltoy · 01-03-2016, 08:35 PM

At the very least, you'd have to drill a hole for the wiring in the bottom of the bumper (which is no big deal). I think the actual fog light would sit in the housing of the diffuser.

I would recommended contacting EVOR and CS t be 100% sure.

Does no look like you would need to cut an opening for the whole light housing, just wires.

Awesome, thank you for the picture. Was that on their website? I haven't seen that picture.

If you talking about CS, it's on their FB.

If you install EVO-R foglight there is not need to cut the nismo bumper for our V1 diffuser and even for wiring can be routed from back

CarbonSignal - thank you
Can I place an order through you for the V1 diffuser and the 15 nismo fog lights?
