im still tryin to get the lights aimed right so it doesnt look shitty
And yes this is probably the trickiest part of the installations.

Had to take my bumper off a few times to get it aim down the road. Adjusting it using the adjuster on the foglights alone wont do any good. The foglights are quite heavy and when mounting on EK there's additional mounting brackets that help supporting it and since it wasn't made for our car, it wont fit. Since the only support we have for the foglights is the trims, which supported the front portion of the foglights, leaving the rear (where most of its weight are) leaning down cause of the flexibilty of the bumper thus the front (the beam) aimed up.

Solution: A custom hanger was made to hang the rear of the foglights to the upper part of the bumper (infront of the headlights) this help pull the rear of the foglights up which will bring the front downward. This is what done on my car. There's also some deleting of parts on the foglights and adding some homemade part to make it works.

Now on my friend car (yellow), we didn't have to made a hanger for it. His foglights trims is a lot stronger and since I used screws to bolt it on this time instead of adhesive, the foglights are securely supported. All I did is take out the beam adjuster on the foglights and lower the beams to it maximum point and secure it ( the beam adjuster on the foglights only lower it beam to certain point and its was not enough). Its works !!! the patterns are down on the road and not bouncing up and down when traveling on bumpy roads.

Hopes this help !

Good luck to whoever planning to get this done. Its possibly the cleanest and cheapest mod !!!
