Ok so I'm looking for options on what I could get to have some fog lights and or driving lights.
I'd like some fogs as it's getting winter here (got the first snow today! wahoo!) and when the roads are wet it's nice to have some additional light on the roads but I obviously can't use high beams when there is oncoming traffic. When it's snowing heavy it's nice to have extra light down low and up close.
I've also thought it would be nice to have a set of driving light that are aimed high so when I'm on high beams if I have a nice open stretch of road I can kick something on that lights up further down the road than my high beams effectively reach, to extend my visibility distance.
I've seen lights behind the grill, lights on the top of the bumper or brush guard, lights in the bumper both diesel and custom bumper (or one of those sold by LMC), and lights in the airdam/valance. Are there any other options?
Right now I'm leaning towards the valance like the in the Denalis and the 454SS. I have never seen an valance like that out at my local yard. Probably because I've only seen one Denali and it was in a bad front end collision which rendered all that stuff useless.
Where could I get an valance like that? Shipping would probably be expensive. I wonder if it would be possible to modify my current one (or one from the junk yard) and make it look good. Would it be possible to find a light that would accomplish both of my goals listed above? (fog and long range driving?)
I'd rather not have to buy a new bumper because frankly I don't have the money to do that and then buy nice lights to put in it and I'm still not sure if I like the diesel bumper look (but it would probably grow on me)
Suggestions?
