Came across these on Google.... Anyone have any experience/pictures?

Also, I'm referring to the two fog light slats rather the extra flare above and below.

I saw your picture posted somewhere on here before; looks good!

I wanted to keep the horizontal lines the same with the grille.... Also, I saw they're mounted with double-sided 3m tape.
