I've seen them as well....I was going to pull the trigger on them but couldn't quite bring myself to do it. My biggest concern is in the photo, it looks as if the fog light is suspended by the insert, where as on a stock face-lift there are brackets the light affixes to(I think). That being said, I wonder if the fog lights would shake a bunch over rough roads. If you buy them, let me know how they work out.

Sucks to be a guinea pig.

I'm sure you could augment the grilles with some custom bracing, maybe aluminum or something? I wouldn't be worried about that so much as the quality of the lights.

well both, but i guess the bulbs would be an easy fix huh.. Just doesn't seem like you'd be getting good quality lenses for that cheap. You should try it and let us know, cause i wanna do this too lol

Why do you want more fog lights? If you're pre-facelift you should already have fog lights in your headlight housing.
