well i went to order foglights for this bumper and got a quick question. My car is a 00 model, i see foglights are different for 00 and 01, what yr model foglights do i need to order?

[ECS Tuning]

Well, this is where things get a bit tricky. From what the parts guys are finding, it looks like you should use the "from" VIN fogs (2001+)

I ordered one and got it in today... amazinly fast. the UPS guy could hardly get it up the stairs lol...


just a question is Volkswagen New Beetle 1.8T > Exterior > Body > ES#6731 Front End Cover - ZVW193117 that is the bra for this bumper right so it has the extra holes for the extra loghts right?

[ECS Tuning]

Thanks for the order!

Yes, that bra is for the Turbo S models only, if you are upgrading to the Votex Turbo S Bumper, this should work and have all the proper hole placements.

Yes, these bumpers are technically Votex kit that looks like the Turbo S bumpers. The Turbo S does use a different fog light, but these kits are designed to work with your existing fog lights so you should be all set.

Thanks for the order!

what??? thanks God i read this...i was about to buy turbo s fog lights

[ECS Tuning]

Yea, the fog lights on these get extremely confusing, but the kits are designed to work with the factory fog lights.

then i just need to delete the side markers and im good to go



BTW have anyone tried to fit this bumper with a FMIC???

[SMG]

I'm going to be running a FMIC with this bumper, I should have it fitted by late April. I cut the grille frame (lip and tabs) out of the bumper by marking a line with a pencil and a block of wood by sliding it around the lip and then I very very carefully cut the frame out with a Dremel and and then block sanded the lip smooth. Came out looking like it came that way stock. The stock fogs wouldn't fit with a FMIC so rather than run empty foglight holes I decided to get everything mounted up and then run the biggest FMIC I can fit to fill the space.
