yeah it looks like the huge rally ones which were accomodated by the bumper so nicely are being phazed out of production models in order to appeal to America. Message to Japan, we'd rather be you..quit pontiac'ing up a Legend.

From the spy shots that I have seen, the EVO VIII looks good without any fog lights. Just my opinion.

I agree, the Evo doesn't need the fog lights.
First of all, the design is cleaner a creates less drag, and second, the HID Xeon lights do the job just fine on the EVO WRC2. (check out the pics in the gallery section of the forum.See? No dish size fog lights...)

I don't care if the Headlight housings give me enough light, or if they slightly decrease my aerodynamics. I WANT MY DINNER PLATE FOGLAMPS BACK!!! I want the front of my car to look like .

The Evo VII GSR has fog lights integrated into the light cluster. If you look at the "evolution" of the evo you can see a long struggle to balance engine/intercooler/oil/brake cooling with the need for foglights. Cooling eventually won out.
