I see some with it with a MS front bumper. You just need to do some modifications to the front bumper.

I believe he did search, that's a 5 year thread bump.


I have an authentic Au-to bahn Bumper and there is no bracket for the OEM foglights available directly from Au-to bahn.
To be honest, I don't think the OEM fogs would look very good with this bumper so you're probably better off just not using fog lights.

If you really want to mount them, you'll need to have something fabricated, I'm sure your body shop can help recommend someone.

I have a replica, but the fogs don't look great on it in my opinion. I used the MS bumper fog light brackets and attached them to the rear. Gave them up after a month, but its a thought at least if you can get some cheap ones. I'd say look into led strip type fogs

One more thing

I am getting mine put on as we speak, and my splash guard is damaged so I have to put a new one on. My shop guy was wondering a good splash guard is going to work with this bumper. For those of you who have it, how is the splash guard going to attach with this bumper? Do I need to go a different route?
