Arnold Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 (edited) Hey all My Glanza is at a bodyshop having a Toms bumper fitted but they've said the standard fogs don't fit. When i bought it, I was told that they were a direct fit. Has anyone had a go at fitting fogs to their Toms bumper? I've searched the boards but have not found an answer. This is the bumper in question, (pic borrowed from another thread) Help! ThanksArnold Edited February 28, 2013 by Arnold Quote

TrisK Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 People keep saying they dont fit, they do. All you have to do is drill one hole. Its not hard Quote

All i'm going on is what the bodyshop is telling me. I have a 98 spec Glanza with the crystal fogs, which I wouldn't mind keeping Quote

They don't line up for 98 spec fogs in a 96 bumper Have a look and you can drill a hole so that it does. It's obvious what you have to do when you look at it Quote
Arnold Posted February 28, 2013 Author Posted February 28, 2013 Ok mate thanks. I called them back and apparently it's no longer an issue, so they've obviously figured it out now. They also had an issue with fitting the duck spoiler as well but apparently now "it's not an issue". Just praying they've not bonded it on upside down or something stupid! Cheers for replies Quote
Ollieh17 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 I'm having this issue too.. I have 96 spec fogs and can't see anywhere for them to attach on the TOMS bumper. Quote
corofin12345 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 i had to make up brackets for mine but realised that the bumper looks 100 times better without fogs so i left them out Quote
corofin12345 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) lol, just realised that the bumper in the first post is my bumper... one of my mates bought that car, brought it to ireland and broke it a few months later and i took the bumper.. Edited October 14, 2013 by corofin12345 Quote
Ollieh17 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 i'm un-sure really, but would like the option to run fogs. Don't suppose you still have the bumper/brackets and could take some photos? Or draw up or give me an idea and what the brackets entailed? Quote
corofin12345 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 i dont im afraid.. dumped them many moons ago.. there was no plans really.. i just made up brackets out of strips of anodised aluminium and drilled and bent them to suit, i never fitted them but all i was going to do then was to stick the brackets to the bumper with P40 once in position Quote
corofin12345 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) you see i think the original owner cut the mountings for the fogs off my bumper so i had the choice to use either 96 spec or 98 spec fogs.. i used 96 spec fogs cause i had them handy so made the brackets to suit the 96 spec fogs Edited October 14, 2013 by corofin12345 Quote
Ollieh17 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 mine has no mountings either, maybe your bumper has been passed along and i have it now!!cheers for the help bud. I have 96 spec fogs so will get the bumper off and see what i can do with some mounting plates Quote
corofin12345 Posted October 14, 2013 Posted October 14, 2013 my one is on a glans s at the moment.... ya, ull see yourself sur once you have the bumper off Quote
