Default European bumpers

Does anyone know that the European market bumpers have the water squirter for the head lights. You guys should look into that it seems really cool, and i was wondering if anyone can get one of those for me or give me a contact so i can do that conversion.

As a Brit with a Euro S2000 I can honestly say that I think everyone in Europe would rather not have the headlight washers.... they are damn ugly! We refer to them as the warts! Big ugly black plastic thingies... urrrghhhh

Too right, ugly A few people have had them painted the same colour as the bumper.

If you really want these then you need to think about where the button goes. On MY02 onwards its on the dash, where U.S. cars probably have something else, cruise control?

I removed mine after the car was repainted because it looks cleaner without them.

They are a bit unattractive but in the states it would probably be considered some sort of status symbol... Like a fake european front license plate and that little oval white sticker that says "GB" on your rear bumper.

I was refering to the headlight washers. The rear fog isn't bad and it doesn't look like a tumor like the black washers, it's not for me but to each his/her own.
