Foglight Covers (Gauging Intrest)

[vodapas77]

This is probably a lost cause, but I figured it might be worth a try. I, like many, am very interested in Sti style foglight covers for the P5, MP3, 03 MSP bumper (I suppose 03.5 MSP with moodification too). I did a search and found that while there have been many suggestions for this product in other threads, I couldn't find an actual list of how many would be interested in getting these produced. So, I am thinking it couldn't hurt to start a list and get some numbers to turn over to DG or other vendors so this product could get some serious consideration. I personally don't care if its FG, CF or urethane, they all can be painted. If there isn't much intrest I'm just going to go to the local custom bike shop and see if they can make me some in FG, but I figured hey it might be worth a shot to try on here.

Cool, I know what you mean. Seriously how many manufacturers do we really need making AutoEXE grilles and lips. Please make new products!

Agreed I could see as much as $150 but not $200-300.

lol. I doubt I'll use that exact phrasing, but thanks for the tip. I didn't know anyone had actually undertaken producing some.

[mypfizzle]

this was a garage production.. then he got sidetracked. -=\ tell him to get on the ball.. daddy needs some foglight covers

I was going to start making some (both STi type styles, full cover and mesh cover) soon, and probably will anyways, no matter what DG decides. Most likely around or under $100.

PS anyone?!

This is a must have for anyone with painted black headlights IMO. I could PS it for you, but you should know by now that you always supply the pics when you ask. I wouldn't even know what to PS on there other than actual WRX fog covers.

will it be removable? how will it attach to the car? :)

[ARunto]

the covers i'd like to see are the ones that have a bunch of holes so the light can still shine thru. my friend has them on his wrx so it looks like he has no fog lights. looks nice and stealthy

Yeah that sounds like one of the designs Dexter is talking about producing. I am really looking forward to seeing what he can come up with. It would be very cool for onr of our own members to produce a product that several members want and have asked for. Might make the vendors start listening to our suggestions a little more instead of just remaking the same products other vendors already produce. Ok, time to get off my soap box.

[vodapas77]

Bump for the day crowd.

Count me in also as long as price is reasonable also :)

[Subghetto]

On a P5, MP3 or 03 MSP yes they should work with the Pilot fog kit. I have the pilot fogs in mine. I think I was the first one to put them in and I used the factory brackets. The stock lights are around 5.25" so they actually stick out farther. Of course it is hard to say what "they" will or won't work with since we don't have a finished product or prototype.

As for how they will connect, that's a good question. Honestly, I haven't been able to get close enough to an Sti to see how their's work. But, I figure where there's a will (or demand) a company could find a way.

I never use my fogs so count me in too (as long as the price is reasonable).:)

[vodapas77]

I heard back from Amie today and she said that DGM has been considering this and it will most likely be a go. I linked her the thread so hopefully she'll add some specifics in the next few days.

I'd be interested if the price was reasonable as well but would need to see an actual pic of them installed on a P5/Pro/MSP before I would commit to anything

[vodapas77]

I'm removing all of the "If the price is reasonable..." subtext. This thread is simply gauging intrest in this product to show DGM or any other vendor or member interested in making these for us how many potential customers they would have. Like any product price will be a defining factor. I am sure if anyone does decide to make these they will start a new GB thread where the price, pics and details will be listed. So, if you have intrest in this product go ahead and sign your name to the list, it by no means obligates you to purchase if a vendor/member produces the product and you aren't happy with the price or design.

I personally perfer the mesh type.

Actually I want to ask everyone who read this thread, which type of the above 3 covers do you guys prefer most?

[hawaiiannights]

Actually I want to ask everyone who read this thread, which type of the above 3 covers do you guys prefer most?

The first one with the see through design definately!! Whats everyone else think?

[vodapas77]

I'm for the second design because I want to paint them body color, but I would definitely buy the mesh design if that was what someone could produce.

[L8R]

hmm imo, idk how this would be done, but im still interested :) - chris

[vodapas77]

hmm imo, idk how this would be done, but im still interested :) - chris

Well, with the mesh ones you could actually use double sided tape or something to keep them on since they wouldn't be pulled on and off all the time. With the solid ones they would have to make a clip or something to retain them. I gotta get a look at an Sti to see how their's work.

[misbehave]

The first one with the see through design definately!! Whats everyone else think?

I like the see through design too.

[L8R]

hmmm yah, well the sti covers go with the flow of the body, i guess the area around the fogs were made for a cover. looking at our car, i dont think it was made to have a cover, if any at all. idk, im studying all night, so dont mind if i start a debate lol i have to stay up. i think cf fog light covers and cf headlight covers would be dope for a show though. gotta do some drawings later of this whole concept lol - chris

plus if we have a lip, hows that gonna work? hmm this is fun to think about... nice distraction for my studies lol

[srtchick]

MESH all the way !! (nana)

Yeah, I don't know. With a lip you're gonna run into the same problem that the 03.5s are gonna have. Of course with the lip you could actually incorporate that into the design as a place to anchor the bottom of the cover to. For the 03.5s they don't even need a cover if they want to run mesh. All they would need is to pull out the grill material put in the foglights that are available on the forum and then put the mesh material in front of the lights.

You're right the Sti's front clip, whether it was designed to or not, is better suited to the urethane covers, because they can clip over the opening instead of having fit inside of the opening. Oh well, if DGM can't come up with something I'm gonna see if midnight customs can whip something up out of FG.

Good luck on your studies.

[ddogg777]

I can see a mesh pattern looking very good! You guys have no vision, the lines are perfect!! Just get the STI line pattern outta your head and you can see.

[vodapas77]

Actually it seems that most people are leaning towards mesh as their first choice. I see your vision and would be very happy if someone could make a mesh design along the same size and pattern of the "round eye" Sti. As for the Sti logo I think it would be the shit to have the JDM "MS" MazdaSpeed logo painted on in the same way. Probably just me though.

[flat_black]

Mesh would be cool, but I prefer the solid one, that's not on the STi. =) Just a nice, solid insert. Either that or the mesh would be fine with me, but I'd like a nice, sturdy way to mount it so a stray rock doesn't send one flying.

[mrpopnfresh]

We might have to get so complicted as to have it mount from behind the foglight, where the bracket is. Maybe if you make brakets that go around the fog and connect to the fog light bracket, then have the fg or fg/mesh or whatever, clip or skrew into those brackets. I guess I'd have to draw it out.

[yeloprofan]

Stay tuned folks. My partner and I are in the process of building a prototype that will have a bracket attached to the fog light mount and a cover with mesh in it so your fog lights are still functional. I will post pics once the prototype is done. Should be about 1 week if all goes well. We mocked it up tonight and it looks good!

Not to bug anyone just trying to see how progress goes and trying to keep thread alive.

[yeloprofan]

We are progressing steadily. The design for the cover has been finalized, we are working on the bracket to hold the cover on this week. Once that it is done production should begin.

[ARunto]

will it have mesh?

[EvilSpeed]

Cant wait too see the final pics of the product.

[Dexter]

ive decided im still going to do this even though others have expressed that they are persuing as well. im not trying to cause competition or anything, im basically doing it more as a challenge to see if I can do it.

[Auzzie_Mp3]

foglight covers would look badss on my mp3, i would buy some if i had money, but im in, in the sense that their should be products made for foglight covers :)

I think it's awesome that forum members are going to make a product that has been ignored by the vendors, no matter how many times it's been requested. The more members who make them, all the better. Nothing wrong with a wide selection. Especially considering this particular product can be made so many different ways. I just wish I had the skills that you guys do.

Cool thanks for the update

[yeloprofan]

Well here you go. This is a pic of the prototypes. They attach via brackets which mount to the fogs. The production versions will have the mounting screws recessed so everything is nice and flush. The frames will come to you in bare metal so you can have them color matched or chrome plated.

nice effort!

[Mr. Win]

hmm a solid seal.

[vodapas77]

Outstanding! Think you could add a rubber grommet to back to tightenup the seal and prevent scratching? Great work, so glad to see these coming together.

[N2OInferno]

I'd be in for these definitely. I think though I'd want some kind of rubber coating around the metal though so I didn't scratch up my bumper, just in case I ever took them off.

[hawaiiannights]

Yes i'd definately be interested if they had some type of rubber around it to seal it tight.

nice nice! i think a new post should be started with pics so more members can comment... i think some people probably stopped looking since this post is so old/so many replies. nice! - chris

so? are you guys in production yet? :D

This could be a good (read - cheap) alternative to replacing a broken fog light lens !

PROTOTYPE. It doesn't look good. Cmon, you know what he's talking about..

Any updates on this ? Is anyone still working on these ?

[vodapas77]

Well considering the response to the only person who has shown their prototype, it wouldn't surprise me if no one makes them.

i'm gonna go to a carbon fiber place this weekend to see if i can get these made. I'll let you guys know on sat.

[RX]

bump for an answer...

[ddogg777]

I've already made some casts of the foglight area (P5 not MSP) and will be sanding and cutting to get a design that I like so that I can make a mold. My plan is to make casts from urethane and leave it up to everyone else to paint. I can't think of any good way to attach them except with 3M tape (foglights are in the way). I want to keep the fogs in there so that some light can show through. However, all of this won't happen for at least another month, I have other projects higher on the priority list... ;)

[Dexter]

werd, pics?

[ddogg777]

If you guys could post more designs with our bumper in mind and not pictures of STIs or whatever, it might help me make up my mind faster and cut the cast to shape.

[capnsavem]

aww man.. my bumper is BASED on a kit made for the WRX... so im ordering these:

Man,

I had completely forgotten about this thread. I ended up just replacing my foglights with the grills that were available on some of the Canadian P5s. For those of you looking for something more like the current Sti you could get the same grills and just fill the mesh with FG and sand it down smooth. That would take care of the mounting problem. Only drawback is they wouldn't actually be foglight covers then since you would have to remove the fogs. Just an idea.

[Dexter]

lang, where did you get those, my friend here has been trying to get them for awhile now with no luck.

[vodapas77]

lang, where did you get those, my friend here has been trying to get them for awhile now with no luck.

I actually just went to the Mazda of Canada website and found the listing for dealerships in BC (since it's the closest to me). I then just called dealers until I found one that had them in stock. Unfortunately, they didn't ship them. But, I asked if anyone in the area could pick them up for me and ship them. Sure enough, Niv (of the Gemini Hood GB) was cool enough to pick them up and ship them to me. (Gotta love these forums.)

I'm sure your friend would have no problem finding a dealership in Toronto that could get them for him. That way shipping shouldn't be too bad at all.

[vodapas77]

Oh here's what he needs to ask for BTW: 2002 p5, mps2 susp, part #B32E-50-C11 and #B32E-50-C21. They are two seperate parts. Make sure he doesn't order the grills that come together. Those are for the 2003.5 MSP.

[Bijou-MP5]

[vodapas77]

Yeah, screw that. I think mine were like $28 USD a piece. Which is still crazy for a piece of molded plastic, but at least reasonable.

cool thanks lang i will relay the info to him

i think he asked niv to pick em up and ship out but im not sure.

those are foglight delete panels...

[Familia323]

that looks photoshopped with the headlights like that. But anyway.. i didn't think those were JDM because you can only get them in canada. I had to have someone from Canada order them for me and ship them to me. But since you asked here are the numbers:

B32E-50-C11 cover-R, lamp
B32E-50-C21 cover-L, lamp

these numbers are under protege5 MPS2 Susp. Option. And if you get this code 0000-86-C09 claiming that its a packaged thing then thats the wrong one.
