Lower Fog Lites for a 09 vert?

Ive seen a few newer models with foglights installed in the 2 lower front openings. The foglights have a horizontal chrome bar that goes across them.

Does anyone know if they make anything like this for an 09, if so, who and how much.

Thanks

I have seen several custom applications but I don't think there is an off the shelf kit that bolts right in as a direct replacement to the front fascia port.

PS - Welcome Tony. Post up some details about your ride...

I read your sig and answered my own question.

Yes it will fit. The 08-10 sport bumpers are the exact same part number as the 2011 journey front bumper. You will need to buy the fogs, chrome surround, trim, ect for the lower openings. Just call your dealer and get all the part numbers.

i would love to get them but we dont have journey models here and i wouldn't even know where to start. afraid of ordering from the states and getting the wrong ones or have something missing.. really dont like the lights that were integrated into the headlamps. makes it look off with the yellow tinge with the HID's

or you can do LEDs in the faux hole covers terminated to headlight wiring...

The cost was around $100 (LEDs wired with resistors 15 on each sides), LED light holders and I bought two faux hole covers (so I could do the install at my leasurly time- now I have spare faux hole covers). The most difficult part is removing the front bumper, install the faux hole cover with LEDs and connect wiring to headlights running/parking light wiring (behind the headlights). I set the pattern of LEDs in the center of each diamond shape area in the faux hole covers so wiring at the back would be easy to terminate. I have mesh but you don't need if you don't like the mesh look...
Wiring is terminating 2 wires on each side (L & R)
Day time look:

Led Holders look like this
