Ok, sounds like you are looking for larger fog-light’s that fit in factory location for a more aggressive look, not necessarily for increased candlepower…
He has a point… as far as what it sounds like you’re trying to do this is definitely the cleanest option…
Sounds like your compromising now. I really doubt you need a lot of extra light. You definitely said you wanted them in factory location, and you strongly preferred the look of the older OEM fogs.
IMO lightbars are far from a cosmetic upgrade, and I only care for the look on a proper rally build…Also doing the JDM fogs is not going to be a big cost difference/hassle over buying a lightbar and mounting. I think you could be helpless but I’m just trying to be nice and drop my 2 cents in.
