Removed my fogs--what did you fill holes in with?
My car is black so the holes are no as obvious but I would like to fill them without welding if possible.

Fill with JB Weld (or the like) from any auto parts store. Sand and touch up with paint (paintscratch.com). I haven't done it yet, myself. But others have gotten great results when removed the reap bumper pads. This is on my list of summer projects.

I think I'd also go with the black plastic plugs.

FWIW, I used the black plastic plugs on my bumperette holes courtesy of Lowes ...looks good. But deleting the fogs leaves more than just holes in the front valance. I got oval-like shapes "imprinted" onto the valance from the stem of the foglamp. Perhaps I'm the only one?

Great info guys--Ill post some pics when I get done. I like the look without the fogs--much cleaner.

Yeah, looking forward to the pics.
Somebody posted a while back that they made brake cooling vents there that came great too. Regards, Markus |

I do like the idea of simply filling them in, though. How effective can the brake cooling be on a car that only occasionally sees the track?

Black steel mesh over the holes. Duct the passenger side to the oil cooler and the driver side over the front mounted AC condenser.
