do you people think its stupid or cool to have another set of fog lights (maybe inside the grill area?) by fog lights i mean ones that are aimed so it will cover some blind spots that the headlights and stock fogs don't cover (yes there are some)

Good idea!!!

I want more lighting and I like to use fog lights since it allows you to see short distance( makes the car look good). Our P5s lower grill don't give you much space to install another set of fog lights... maybe BEHIND the grills, but it might affect the lighting (lighting shooting through the grill can decrease it's effectiveness). But I like the idea.

you cut part of your grill and put the light in between it

Personally, I think it'd give the car a peiced together look (read: half-assed ). Would it be possible, instead, to get a different fog light that has a different beam pattern to replace the stock fog light?

One other thing to be concerned with, most municipalities allow no more than 4 lights (2 pairs) on at a time when using your low beams (and that includes the low beams).
