You have the factory fogs installed but you don't use them?

I'm biased, but the forte looks so much better than the civic. That said, I wouldn't mind the giddy-up of the Si.

I really don't understand why white, one of the most popular colors for cars, isn't an option here in the states for the SX. Oh well haha

after seeing your car next to the SI I can see why all the Honda guys are complaining about how our car stole design features from them. After all they both have a grill headlights and they both even come in white. It's a wonder you can tell them apart. Sarcasm over

The Koup compared to the Civic Si would be like dating a cute girl (Civic Si) and then seeing her smoking hot sister (Forte Koup) and wondering how you can dump the cute girl for the smoking hot sister.

There are a lot of cute girls but not a lot of smoking hot girls.. LOL I'm done

Hey Aidensgrand, I was thinking (because I'm going to be in the same boat as you... Koup EX with non-wired SX fogs), what about installing LED strips inside the fog lenses (maybe in a square around the outside or something) and wiring them to the parking lights. I know they'd be on all of the time, but at least they'd be getting used.

If you do get yours wired up (normally) can you post some pics? Maybe even some pics of the install? I pick up my White EX tomorrow and I really want to do something about fogs!
