I've got Factory Style fogs that I bought online, and I love them. But if I didn't wanna spend the money on a factory style fog light kit, then these would be a very good, low cost option. For appearance only though

There's just no way it could be bright enough. In our vehicles, I think of fog lights as maneuvering/cornering lights, in that they help you see around a corner as you're turning, since they provide more lateral light dispersion. That's very useful to have, especially in when you're driving in an area you haven't been to before. Function over form, at least for this. LEDs are years off from being practical for this purpose.

Fog lights don't shine far enough down the road to "help you see around a corner as you're driving".
There's no denying they have better lateral dispersion, but that dispersion doesn't extend far enough away from your car to prove useful. It's pretty much just to fill the gap between the very bottom of the headlights' cutoff and the front of the car.
Fog lights now adays (and on these cars) are more aesthetic than functional...so use those two holes at the bottom of the bumper in a way that pleases you most.

I personally have factory style fog lights in my car, and even with HID's in them, they don't shine far enough forward to be useful. I have to lean way forward to even be able to see the furthermost light on the ground coming from my fogs. They do help in corners, but very very slightly

They do add light in the corner a bit and since they are cool white(6000k) it actually looks pretty cool. It was the first thing that my friends noticed.

Yuri, just keep in mind that you would need to be at least a Trader status on Scionlife in order to sell these. PM Tomas about becoming a Trader before attempting to sell them... or you know ban and what not...
