Hiding F15 fog lights with a cover

Phil426 · 10-21-2018, 08:45 PM

Hi guys,
New owner of an F15, really happy with the looks of the m sports kit, just one thing that quirks me with the design of the front is the fog lights which i never will use.

I think it would look much more modern if if the fog lights weren't visible by using a cover to hide.

I've done a google search but can only find fog lights cover for other brands of cars.

Has anyone seen covers for the F15s?

Example:

Cover? Oh man....
Smoke the lenses perhaps?

Oh god don't. Please don't. Plus the fogs are some of the most useful fog lights I've ever had on a vehicle. They actually visibly light up the side of the roads. Do you have the LED fogs or halogen?

You could always spray them with plasti dip too. But again don't recommend this at all

Even with a cover like that, you would have light bleeding on the edges especially at night.

They sell this 3D scanner to scan the space, which you can import into AutoCAD then you can use a 3D printer to print your own part or better buy a CNC mill and make it out of aluminum.

Don't give any ideas. This should not be done. It's going to look a million times worse trying to cover them. Plus, as Mav said, they work well. Why would you want to remove extra lighting and visibility?

Go back to Subaru please.
