mines standard back bumper, if you want i can fire up a few more pics.
what way did you wire up the fogs ? i wired mine up across the back of the radio to the passenger footwell, and out the grommet under the water bottle. and got a 2nd rear fog button and put it in upside down to make it kinda/sorta look like a front fog light.

Thatd be great mate ,

Ive just got a relay wired to a spilt wire on spade conectors instead of wiring to the connector and a toggle switch on the dash

Ive mocked it up and both fogs light so the car is wired for them now :)
