LED's in the lower front bumper?

Has anyone added LED's to the front M-Sport bumper? I think the front could use a little more light. Maybe some LED marker lights in the scoops where the oem fogs go. I don't have fogs.

Not M-Sport, but you can just make out my LED strips. $15 at Walmart as I recall. The strips are attached to the whiskers, it's their reflection you can see below the whiskers.

Curious what you wired them to since my msport has no fogs. I've thought of getting the g30 fogs and modifying them to fit but not sure how it would wire up. definitely do not want the 1990s way of putting in a switch in the dash

I wired them to the fuse for the console outlet. They come on when I unlock the car, go off five minutes or so after I lock it. Their current draw is practically nothing, so no need to do anything more complicated. They don't replace my fogs, they replace my DRLs, which I don't use.

No, no, no. Please don't let it look like a Mustang.
