Fog lights.

So I'm thinking about getting a set of fog lights made for my G37S.

In the two far bottom vents, I was thinking sort of an L design, from the bottom to the middle of the vent in one row. I was thinking maybe 7-10 high power 3 watt LED's with plastic projector pieces for each light.

So what do you guys think? Any better ideas?

No, mine would be made with a stainless steel housing, and those are not high powered LED's

white leds would be useless as fog lights. 2500k bulbs are the best light output during fog/rain. maybe if you got some yellow leds?

I think LED's in general will be useless as lights, without a proper projector. ie the headlights in the LS600h, the first car to use led headlights.

This was mainly an idea for looks. Fill in the empty space you know? Anyways, I'll tart doing up some measurements and sketches, I'll post a new thread when it's ready

If you have the Technology Package, your options are almost nil for using that space - the Intelligent Cruise Control sensor takes up most of the driver's side vent.
