Default Modified Lights in Stock Bumper, Ideas?

Ok so I just installed my KC Slimlights on my windshield mounts today and am in love with them, but then it got me thinking of what other creative ways other than a light bar I could come up ith for mounting lights.

I had the idea to mount another small set of lights into the plastic of the stock bumper, sort of like the stock fog lights that came with it. What do you all think about this? Would it be possible to mount a set flush with the bumper? Has anyone done it? Ive searched around and havent found anything so input would be awesome, especially pictures if it has been done.

Thanks again guys

Search for posts by AlmightyCrash (I think). He added an extra set of stock fogs and has 4 total across his bumper. I'll see if I can find a pic for you.

Default Yes!

Awesome guys! This is the kind of stuff I have been looking for, and yes it is definitely inspiring, now I just have to decide what set of lights I like best. I almost want to mount a set of rectangular lights on each of the bulges where the tow hooks are, I just have to take apart the bumper to check for space. Do you thing the Xmitter lights would be good for the bumper?

Sorry about all of the questions, just looking to do something unique

I'm looking to do something similar. My X didn't come with the stock fogs but I like the finished look of them being flush mounted. I stumbled across this link. Hopefully this helps.

Bulges is where the crush cans are, so you'd have to cut those off to put lights in.
