I think that's exactly what I got. Let me check my email and I'll confirm. You could also get a p/n from your dealer and cross reference it.
Update: Yup, that's the one. It's too bad we can't just replace the lens. I was told due to road debris, it's a common thing.

Cool, looks like I'll order it. you guys got a diy? A search I did, the guy just moved the oil cooler to the side to access it. I don't want to go under the car and pull the whole plastic guard to access it.

I had it done while a shop was clear coating my CF front lip so they had to remove the whole bumper anyway. Otherwise, I was going to have it done when I was upgrading the fog lights to HIDs.

I've changed fog light bulbs by peeling the fender liner back (partially) and pulling down the lower underbody panel (partially). I can state it was a royal PITA and took me over an hour to get the job done. Based on what I remember, to replace a fog light housing would require the removal of the bumper cover or the complete removal of the underbody splash guard.

Got prices from 2 different dealers today for part only (I think)---$323 and $303, whoa..... Will order on-line. Didn't think to ask about installation. I busted mine on the track last weekend with flying gravel. This is also bad for CF lips as well.
