Fogs ideas for an '05 TL other than '03 Accord fogs or JDM

Since really any option requires cutting and mounting. Wondering to see any other options that would fit and require little modification?

Also LED or HID?
What K should i be looking at to match stock HID's

Maybe something like this? Mounted behind the grill and but out only for lens?
X.DRL - LED Lighting From The Retrofit Source


I like the look of the 03 Accord fogs, but would it be better with LED bulb?
Also this seems pricey at over like $275 for the fogs, bulbs and wiring....

What is your end game? Are you looking to have fogs mounted in the lower bezel or are you looking for more light thrown out in front of you?

I'd personally put Bimmer 6 series led foglights. First, they don't blind traffic like some other aftermarket led's, and second they actually work well.

Now if you want to send messages to the International Space Ship, by go ahead and get aftermarkets that'll give you a piss poor cutoff and no side illumination.

Inspire fogs require MUCH less cutting than accord fogs.

End game is fogs in the lower grill as well as some extra light down the road..

They have less cutting than the 03-05 accords? Are they an easier mount to? I like the look of both, think I prefer the smaller look of the accords.
