Just wondering if anybody out there has endeavored to install foglights similar to what Audi is doing. Not sure if I want to try this, or get a HID foglight upgrade from our friend, Brabusw209amg.

It has been done I believe. Maybe Gene can help you out 
But honestly, BMW has angle eyes, Audi has LED's. Let's keep it that way...just get HID fogs!

It just dawned on me - Audi rings on the kidneys. And no one thought of it before? I'll be the first then to start the trend. Many will follow suit. It'll be a new movement
