Default Driving Lights

Has anyone put aftermarket driving or fog lights on their 3? I was wondering if you could mount them inside the grill or to the license plate bracket.

i have foglights, ive seen 3's with them in the lower grille and in the upper grille, it dont look right (like a wannbe rally car), the stock location for the foglights works and looks best putting anymore just looks bad. by driving lights do you mean parking lights?

He probably means driving lights. The difference between fog and driving lights is in the shape of the beam pattern. Fogs are more like a flood, driving have a longer narrower beam.

Right.
I wonder if there's anything to mount them to behind the grill. The stock ones don't put any light on the road where it is usable. I guess I could trim or file down the post that the mounting screw goes into to get them turned up some.
