Alright, I figured because the only place it seemed to fit would partially block the headlights which im not going to do. Thanks

Hmm, so either custom fab something, buy correct fog lights that will fit, or get a new bumper?

No, just drill two holes in the ripoff the bumper and bolt the lights on, it will take five minutes.
