Default PIAA Fog Lights in grill

I was thinking about getting a pair of fog lights and not sure where to put them. Originally I was thinking in fang grill area, but then thought maybe in the front center grill. What do you guys think? Have any of you installed fog lamps on your 370Z?

Not sure they will fit on outside of fangs area, but the 1100s (driving not fogs) might. Your only choice for fogs may be inside/between the fangs.

Default Idea

I would try mounting them verticle in the slat/fang area. I have been contemplating what type of light size for that. Go with a nice amber tone it will mix good with the white primaries.

These might look good inside the front grill...still unsure...fine line I don't want to cross where the car then looks cheap.

those look like the oem ones that jookiyaya posted a while back..... i think thats the closest ones that would look semi oem... i still wish that they would create a panel or something that fit perfectly on the bumper... instead of fogs that look like universal ones and we screwed them on the bumper...

This thread is quite old... just wondering if any other forum members have added fog/auxillary grill lighting to their Zs since the last post back in 2010? How do you like them? Pics?
