Foglight mounting

So I have an ordeal, I need (really, really, really want) to mount my fog lights into my bumper. The problem, I have the competition front bumper and I have no idea how to go about this. There is an 8 out there that has them mounted but I don't know how they did it or how to get ahold of them.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

i reeeaaallly dont remember what that area looks like since its been a while since i took off my front bumper..

but i dont imagine there would be any problem fabricating a bracket that hooked onto the oil coolers bracket.

the oem fog lights attatch to the bumper IIRC and i hate it so much.

if it was attached to the car then taking the bumper off would be much easier. I hate getting my hand up in there to disconnect the fog light plugs.

attaching it to the oil coolers brackets would seem like a no brainer for me. You wouldnt even have to mess with unplugging them when taking the bumper off.
