When I bought my GT I really wasn's a big fan of the four eye look so I picked up a Roush front end for it. I will be installing the Ford Racing brake duct kit to keep my Brembo's nice and cool. I took a trip down to my local Pepboys a couple days ago and picked up a set of Hella Black housing driving lights. After doing some measuring I made my own brackets and mount them behind the grill. Its a pretty cool look just because unless you are looking for the fogs you can't see them until I turn them on. The light output is pretty good but I think I am going to ditch them and buy a Rigid Industries 20 or 30in LED light bar instead. A buddy has the 20in on his Raptor and DAMN as soon as the bar comes on it looks like a train headlight!

The nice thing about these are I was able to use all of the factory fog light wiring and harness so the install was a BREEZE!

Has anyone else done anything similar to this? I would like to see what everyone else has done aside from the stock or C/S setup.

Very cool! I am kind of partial to the no fog look, I live in a major metro area so the roads are lit up for the most part and I have HIDs so the color difference looks goofy. That being said I would never want to delete the fogs so this seems like a good compromise. If I ever got around to doing something like this I would mount them a bit more in board so I could get the offset pony badge on the grill.

Thats perfect. With a bit of tint on the fogs they will be nearly invisible. I can use the offset pony badge and the intake will get more airflow without the fog there.

The grille is from stack racing from American Muscle. Scored it on ebay for 20 bucks. I used the stock fog lights after hitting the deer cracked my stock grille. It's not the best fit in the world, but I had nothing to lose trying it.
