OEMish Foglights?

So I'm not a fan of the in headlight foglights on these cars. And I dont want to add aftermarket led strips that look like you took your car to autozone customs. Has anyone came up with somewhere bumper mounted fog lights that look somewhat factory?

Not a smart idea as you lose any sort of distance coverage. Fogs are designed to throw light out to the sides and down in front of the vehicle to aid the lows, not replace them.

Not meant to be used in normal driving like most uninformed drivers use them for. I'm tired of being blinded by people who think more foreground is better.

OP, use your Fogs... only in the fog...

come on guys. u guys should know better. the g35 fogs are more like halogen low beams. theyre not traditional low to the ground bumper fog lights. they were just as bright and functional as all the other halogen low beams from other cars. and i only did in city driving anyways which was mostly where i drove.

There were JDM optional fog lights for the coupe. Might be hard to find actual OEM parts, but many of the aftermarket/eBay sets were copies of the JDM part.

​​​​​​Note, they only fit the non-sport bumpers.
