Default Quick LED fog light question

Couldn't find much info on this subject. I wanna get led pod lights and mount them in the bumper like the flush mount kind. But they only come in spot and flood type. What's the best for in the bumper? I figure it's flood but I just wanna see what someone else has to say.

Flood. It's going to let you see through the fog better. Spot is just going to create large light beams that make it harder to see in front of you in the fog because it'll just reflect from the water.

You can go a step further and order yellow housing filters to make them even more effective too.

x2^^^^ I personally just buy the amber tint to tint them... do it correctly and its cheaper and durable. White reflects more light back at you...

Side note, I just bought a set of these off eBay for 20 (several different sellers) and they are pretty amazing... super stout and are brighter that a 150$ set of KCs they replaced... I very rarely am presently surprised by an ebay product lol.


*edit* sorry the app was acting up and upload that picture like 3 times lol.

sorry to revive an old thread but i didnt want to start a new one. I know flood are going to be better for fog lights but i found these lights that are half flood, half spot. i think they would make pretty good driving/fog lights for my bumper
