I will not be at that point for a few month yet, so if you are willing to wait that long, I will take pics.

From this post, it does not look like you need to cut anything.

See Simotas post #6.

Help if you have amuse front bumper!

Some confusing info there, some say cut others say don't.

I had to cut a good couple of inches off the bottom of the fender liners. There was no way there were even close to fitting without cutting.

So much effort in cutting and fitting with this version of Amuse replica.... should have got the Duraflex version; it bolts right up!

Super old post coming back from the dead.
I myself was thinking the same since I have a Shine Auto Amuse Front.
Did you ever get around to making them fit/fabricate something to make them hold in place?

The OEM wil not fit on the passenger side due to the washer fluid bottle.

I bought some Osram aftermarket DRLs and the body shop build the brackets to hold them. I don't think Osram makes the ones I installed anymore, but all you have to find is something just big enough to fit into the vent. Mine are actually a touch short for the front vents, but it is not noticeable behind the mesh.
