Unhappy HELP!!! FOG LIGHT INSTALL

I have a 2003 E320, base model. I got the car from some goon and the body kit on it is a "AMG/SPORT" POS on it. I know I should invest in a new kit but for now this will do. I had some Oval Hella fogs in them origianlly BUT the light refraction was HORRIBLE. So I got AMG fog lights to fit. I assumed AMG KIT = AMG FIT but I was mistaken.

So my delimma is the mounting is not matching up. Please look at my photos. Any Ideas? Suggestion? Input?

Classic Plutoe answer, this guy ^ hahahaha.

As to OP, I would think that trying to get a custom fit will take more time than money instead of returning the parts and starting over. You'll probably never be happy with it either in such a situation. Get the proper fitment and possibly consider going HID from DDM Tuning for better light spread.

Body kit does not look that bad and considering the value of the car getting a new kit is probably not a sound investment.

As for fitment probably need a cheap ebay set that will match the chinisse version of the mounting?
