Front bumper lights

I wondering if anyone else has the same problem I am. I just noticed it when I put the clear bumper lense on my ride. When I turn my lights on the full front bumper lense doesn't light up. I really didn't pay to much attention to it before I got the clear lenses but it starting to really bug me now. The only thing that stays lite is the corner bulb on the bumper lenses, the middle only lights up when I turn my indicators on. The link below shows a couple of pics as to what I am talkin bout. I wondering if anyone else is having this problem or if its just normal. If anyone knows a why to light up the whole bumper lense pls let me know.

That's normal. They are turn signals not fog lights; although, I have seen them wired to stay on when you turn the headlights on.

i think that the reflector in the stock light made some light go to the other half where the blinker is, but on clear outs they dont. i cant remebers its been so long. i like it better cuz now my headlight and blinker are lined up perfectly and my corners are matched up also. i have blue plasma piaas in thr corners and new extremes in headlights and blinkers so everythign matches up.

Yup, that's the way it's supposed to be. That's why there's two bulbs and not one. Like madj80 said, you can play with the wiring to make it stay on and blink when you signal, but I'm not sure how you do that. Personally, I agree with VXCL and like the alignment of the stock look....
