TSI owners... quick question

Anyone who owns the TSI kit,

Does the new kits IC system allow you to keep fog lights? I was looking at eye_see_you's car and it seems that it would, since you don't need to cut away any of the front bumper. I was just wondering if anyone has this done or knows for sure.

I ncer had stco fog lights, but I did not have to cut anything off the bumper on my sedan.
I extensively discussed TSI kit with another old member, and he never mentioned anything about bumper cutting on his coupe.

your right there is no cutting needed due to the slim fitment of the FMIC

Matulin407 is an unknown quantity at this point
u could probally make the fogz fit by doing a little "modifying" to the ends of the assembly like shaving some crap off, or getting aftermarket lights and putting them elsewhere. just my 17 cents/

vietstylez will become famous soon enough
fogs dont take up any space behind the bumper so i'm pretty sure it would work

Did you experience any problems when you got your kit? Did you have to get anything fabricated, etc? What did you do for fuel? You can just pm me if you want...I just wanna talk to someone who actually has the kit, to see their experiences.
