Smile on ebay

i bet u could find some inserts at a salvage yard and put some high density bulbs in them, spruce them up, its not hard to do a little sanding and painting and if you mess them up, you got them a t the junk yard. i recently bought a grille insert for my audi on ebay, it fit awesome and shipping was free, and the look turns heads even more, just be very and read reviews!
P.S the lug covers on my wheels lost their paint after some heavy duty cleaners i used, i sanded and painted the and they came out great

^ I'm sure buying the inserts off eBay and getting a set of fogs would work with a little massaging........

BTW.....lose the grille......sorry it might just be me, but damn that looks awkward.

no no no no....sorry, I was writing that and when it posted you had already replied before me. That was at Draklore, and that god-awful Paul Wall Grillz his Audi is wearing.

just because you can put something like that on your car doesn't mean you should.

can you answer a curious question? your fog lights, do they mount to solid points behind the bumper or are the supported by the insert or bumper itself? To get back to the original point I didn't want to purchase something like Phil is proposing if there isn't a way to make the fog light assembly stable.
