    don't know? if not I'll make one thats more versatile. I'm definitely trying to make it so you can still run a front plate though.

I'm going to be test mounting it with some hella 500 lights. I'll get a bunch of flat,round,square and rods of metal and think of something. price would be cheap-ish.
      Word. I didn't mean the weird flat bracket on the white car. Just the location of the fogs I think is better. Both are fine location wise.

      I was talking with a friend and definitely wanted to do this.

                If you can set the lights closer to the grill like I have on my IX I'd be interested if the price was right...

                  Nice.

                  Is that still sold now?


                  *edit*

                  PM'd the guy that posted it. Wonder if I can easily find one to buy. Looks like just use long bolts through the euro plate holes and go through bumper support. Mount lights and done.

                              what would you guys like the lights to mount to???? A round bar with tabs for the lights to bolt to, square barwith tabs, or just a flat piece of steel with a hole in each end for the lights to bolt to? I would make sure that the bracket would take abuse, and not flex around no matter what style I choose.

                                i think this is a great idea and you'll have a handful of people buying from you if you make a nice setup.
