Fog lamps on 1m bumper ruins it IMHO.

I find front foglights fairly useless.
There's no point in using them in light fog as it doesn't make any difference. Heavier fog makes such a tiny difference it's not really worth it.

I got told as of a certain date this year ( cant remember the date) that we will no longer be able to use foglights on A or B roads, so unless you drive hundreds of miles on a motorway, added with the amount of fog we actually get and how useless i think fogs are i wouldnt bother with them

Frint fog lights arent a legal requirement. Mainly because they are usless in most cases. And if tou miss your fogs because you like to be cool and druve with them on when there is no fog olease sell your car and purchase a saxo so you fit in.

Hmm looking at others with 1m bumpers it does look meaner without fogs.
Btw do I need air ducts for both side? As I only bought one for the driverside..

The air ducts are brake coolers. No use only cooling one brake now is there.

Forget the fogs mate.

As you have noticed already... it looks far more aggressive without them! Looking forward to seeing your car come together!
