Default fog light for jdm front

SO i was browsing a/c earlier... i know i know ...and i came across something interesting.

it seems to be a jdm front integra with some other fogs in the side vents on the bumper.

So i did some more looking and it seems that those fogs are from a 96-98 civic.

I actually like the look of this and was wondering what you guys thought.

Good way to block the air from going to the intake

I wasnt aware that these side vents are functional...i dont think the ones on my jdm front bumper even have vents in them (ie. its a solid piece of plastic if memory serves me correctly).

yeah i also love the look and i actually think its functional, my fogs dont really seem to light up the road much up close, parked facing a wall the fogs have a cutoff right below my hid's which makes them project out further. Most fogs sorta fill in the gap between the front of the car and where the headlights start lighting the road. Also to my knowledge there is no way to adjust just the fog on the jdm light assmebly.

yeah i just ran out to the parking lot to verify and the side vents are really faux vents. They dont allow air to pass through.

Might have to adjust the height of the regular fogs. My fogs are bright enough that I can see where i am going with the headlights off.

Mine are also, however they are slightly aimed upward. I dont think its the whole assembly though becasue the highbeams are aimed correctly.

Just searched and the cost of the fogs range from 100 to 160 for good quality. Dont think this is a cost effective mod, but it does look good imo.
