I need to purchase a set of fog lights for my Do-Luck front bumper.

I'm having a tough time finding something that looks decent. I don't want it to be too over the top, however, I want it to be sharp. I believe the opening for the fog lights is the same as the Maxx Evo. I need to measure again to confirm what size it is.

What do you guys think I should go with? I've been contemplating PIAA, but the one I really want has a chrome grill. I'm not driving a Jeep, so I think it would look tacky. They also have an HID Foglight which is around $1200!

Lets here your input.

Edit: The fog light opening measures 6"

Here's a pic of my front bumper and the PIAA 520 SMR I had in mind.

The fog light opening measures 6" [It's a circle so it's 6" across and top to bottom ;)].


Let me know what you guys think

Hella lights are good, but those are 3/8" too big according to what you posted for your hole dimension. ;)
Plus, it looks like the mounting bracket will require a bumper customize.

ERA those are very very nice. I'd rather have a clear lens, however, that model and style is very much my cup-o-tea. Any other info.?

Jdub: I noticed that, but finding an actual 6" foglight is proving to be difficult. I figure going a tad bigger would allow for a snug fit. Installation shouldn't be too bad.

I also found this kit which I like a lot. The price is more than the 500 series, but it seems to be a nice set of fog lights:

If you can't find any lights that go in the bumper of an Evo VI, then you're looking at bumper customization to fit bigger or smaller factory lights for another car. How about 06'-09' Mustang GT fogs? If you can find them...With those lights, you may not have to put your headlights up!!

I am pretty sure the chrome grill on those just clip on a family member has a set on his 4runner and on a Chevy 2500 and the grills come off .. the out put is really good too they will blind on coming traffic:icon_razz

Mo - If anything, you want to go a bit smaller diameter. The mounting bracket geometry will be a factor as well.

Thanks for the replies.

I'll keep looking and see what I can find. Hella makes some nice kits. At this point, I think it's going to be trial and error to see which one works.

Thanks for the suggestion Poodles. I like the first set. I think the second one is a bit too small.

At least I've got a lot of different options
