Installed Maybach style fogs

This weekend I installed Maybach style fog lights. Since I couldn't figure out how to control them with the DRLs, I just wired them to ignition. I also installed the Maybach style chrome rear bumper piece.

For those that don't like it you are welcome to your opinion. I'm not trying to make it a Maybach, I just think like the look.

Before pics? Forget what it looks like. So, these are also on FULL BRIGHTNESS all the time?

Unfortunately I think the air vents are different for the sport versus non sport so I do not believe the ones I purchased would fit a sport. I haven't seen a Maybach with a similar grill as the sport...

But on the bright side, you still have a sport package which is awesome looking!

I'm sure I can wire it differently to adjust the brightness but this was to get it working. I'd really like to see someone (like Midcity Engineering) develop a module that connects to the CAN bus or intercepts signal at the headlight and allows control of these lights with stock light switch
