Carlsson twin fogs, LEDs or Avantgarde original .. Photoshoped

What looks better? Any suggestions?


I have taken an image posted by someone in the same forum and photoshop it for Carlsson twin fogs and LEDs. Sorry for using the image but this was the most suitable image to see the REAL look of the fogs over company installed Avantgarde bumper without Carlsson lip.

I'd say the double fogs look nice.

I like the original best.

The duals look too busy and the combo LED/fog looks off balance strange.

Double Fogs for sure! Especially if the outer fogs are for corner-illumination and the inner ones for always-on fogs.

Too bad MB didn't use headlamps that swivel back & forth like they do on BMWs. But then again I'd be worried as to when the motor on those would malfunction.

I like the double fogs as well, just like on the new E-class.

Doesn't Brabus or Wald offer these?

True,
Carlsson's dual fogs are the only ones to be fixed with non AMG bumpers because carlsson came up with a lip only instead of complete bumper.
