Thanks for the help!

How did you get to drill that long hole? Its not a circular hole its more rectangular in shape. Maybe you just drilled 3 circular holes together?

What i'm worried about is taking off my rear bumper cover and when putting it back on it wont be aligned properly on the ends of the bumper?

Is it hard to remove and put back the rear bumper cover?

Yes, just drill 3 small circular holes together
The bumper is super easy to take off, it takes about 5-10mins.
Get some one to help you, so you guys can align it properly

Did you drill and use more 3M tape? Or just use tape?

So when are you going to get the Tanabe Exhaust now?

Cool thanks!

Mind posting some pics of your car?

Default HID Fog Lights - Question

On www.bimmian.com my friend ordered Xenesis tru-match H8 bulbs for his fog lights... they are advertised as a "perfect match" to the stock xenon headlights. Is there anything similar to this for the IS250? He has a E92 335i. Do both the IS250 and 335 use the same size bulb so could I possibly order this bulb as well?

Thanks
