foglight design suggestion for manufacteurs
My best bet of getting someone to consider this is here so hopefully enough people will agree; and get some buzz around it... or not.
I've been looking to put some foglights on the tC. I want something to go in the mock brake vents and that's for sure. So far, I've considered putting in projectors and covering them with mesh that you normally find on Mercedes.
I've seen photos of the IS300 fogs in there but they don't seem to fit in very nicely.
Then I've seen photos of the VRD lights. Close but... My only opinion about them is that (from the pictures) they seem recessed a little too far back for my liking. When they are on at night, it looks like there's an outer glow around them (from light bouncing off the sides of the skirt because they are too far back). I am not digging that too much. They look nice during the day time.
Hopefully someone makes something to my liking soon. My car feels naked without foglights.

Typo, I meant, "mesh"
Here's the best photo I can find:

Mercedes uses the black small honeycomb mesh. I thought about shaping some mesh to 'hide' the roundness of projectors (seen during the day time).
Oh, definitely no ricey look for me. I'd like to see the VRD lights moved out another half an inch. That way they have to be a little bigger too and look a little more proportion to the headlights. I might end up putting them in if nothing else is available.
