Why don't you try to bend some PVC piping out on the ends to create the shape of the duct and then paint it black. It is really easy stuff to mold with some heat. :)

Yeah, I'll look at rolling some sheet to the right shape once I receive the bar. If I can get it to look good, I'll probably go that way.

Had a look through other pieces of paper/brochures etc for any other identifiying part number, but no cigar. Page from the Parts bok attached (Same as Cam's Fast search)..

Thanks for having a look, that was about as far as we could get too. Appreciate the effort.

Cheers, Dale.

Nice find, thanks!

I've got Aaron from IM on the case, looking for the lights & surrounds for me.

Cheers, Dale.

For the record, they're more or less exactly what bolts into my Kenstyle front bar - I dont have any other parts/surrounds, so it could be okay

Do the grey blanking plates bolt or clip in by any chance?

I have seen a few that have neither the blanking plates nor the fog lights and there is a frame there with four holes (from memory)

The blanking plates are clipped on I think...Or bolted. Either way they can come off...

I take it that the connectors to operate the foglights should be there?

So if I turn on these foglights they will come on along with the built in foglights?

if you really wanted you could probably wire them to a secondary switch.

you could have only the fogs on then if you wanted.. looks nice imo

Thats what I've got, but mine stay off because its illegal to drive with fog lights on if its not foggy or misty :rolleyes:

I think its SA specific, Im not sure how increasing your visibility (Both to be seen and to see) is a negative - but apparently it is :worship:

According to the Department of Transport, Energy and Infrastructure, and I quote:

  Quote
Drivers can only use front fog lights in hazardous weather conditions. This brings the rule into line with the existing situation for rear fog lights. Use of fog lights in other conditions can dazzle oncoming drivers. Previously front fog lights that dazzled approaching drivers were dealt with as an offence under a different rule.

Thats right, they'll dazzle you. Awesome. Thanks government.

    • For the record, I hate the colour. Even if I'll never see it again, I know its in there.
    • This is another issue I'm fixing. This little valve stops all the oil from draining to the sump when the engine is turned off. What happens eventually is that the engine is a little noisy and has the oil pressure light on for a few seconds after turning it on. Basically it takes a few seconds to build the pressure when all the oil has drained. This valve is a non serviceable part and is attached to the oil filter housing, BMW suggests to replace the entire housing if this valve fails.  As it turns out this valve can be removed and that means you can get an aftermarket replacement, which I did. The failure, for me at least is that the valve doesn't seat properly after a while, which I've demonstrated. The new one is a ball end and always seats properly. 
    • Welp don't know if this is good but I can hear a sizzling sound in my battery Hope I didn't fry it. Turns out a bad battery in the multi meter will give a false reading (likely what happened when I said I had 15x volts), swapped the battery and monitoring now. I'm hoping that sizzling sound is just the equlisation charging
    • Yeah I'm happy to talk to whoever, I don't want to take ownership or even manage it if they don't want but I can probably help with hosting on the sau setup. It's a great resource and should be protected.
    • So, got some bits..   New oil filter housing gasket (main problem I'm trying to fix -see leak above)  While you're in there's: New belts, pulley and tensioners.  Vanos oil line New oil drain valve New water pump and pulley  New fumoto valve (all my cars have these). Some of this stuff seems ok now that I've pulled it out but I still have no idea how old it all is.  The belts looked fine and then I noticed this. Like somebody has hooked it with a pick.
