When I considered doing this myself,, it looked like you'd not only need to cut the grill, and the gloss painted black plastic that sits behind it, but you'd have to cut into the surround itself, was that the case?

Hi! Great results indeed.
Are fog lights still fitted with OEM screws? Are only "some" cuts required on the new bumper inserts?
Close pics would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Will these fits on a cupra 290 pre-facelift? I have no fog lights, only grills

No different bumper and fog light setup entirely

Hi Novus,

Just purchased the Cupra R inserts and want to do exactly as you've done on your Cupra. It looks fantastic, and great job on modding it!

Quick question, do you have any measurements/dimensions for the 'cuts', or did you just do it until it fitted? Do you have any close up photos?

Thanks in advance mate.

I cut piece by piece until it fitted exactly
One picture below Im done when Im fitted inserts. Second its when Im finished with dark PPF

Thanks for the reply mate, really appreciate it!
Piece by piece sounds like a good idea to me, I'm going to make a fog lamp template too to give me a rough idea and I'll go from there. I'll let you know how it goes.

Carbon splitter looks great too by the way!

Interesting. Can you remove the foglight from the original grilles without taking the whole lot out? Thinking of removing just the fog light and then using it to cut the cupra R grills before trying to swap them over.

Fog light actually attaches to the bumper not the grill. The Grill just sits around it.
