Default Fog lights

So I just picked up a fresh brush guard and will need to mount some fresh lights to it. I'm torn between the many options available. I upgraded my headlights and have no problems with those so I was thinking a nice fog light. I live in coastal Maine and it's always foggy or rainy or snowing or a mixture of all that good stuff. I want to keep it simple and clean with some halogens was thinking some basic hella 500 fogs, anybody run amber lenses and is there a major difference? Recommendations please!

I run amber in mine. I think it's easier on the eyes and not so blinding. But everyone has their opinions on amber lighting. It works easier with my eyes, however other will swear that the standard white lighting is just fine.

If your brush guard does not block the opening on your bumper then just put in a 20" light bar. I have mine aimed low to not blind anyone and it works great for me

Thanks, that looks great, I ended up taking off the brush guard and mounting the lights behind the grill, I accidentally ordered driving lights instead of fog lights so that set up will be perfect I think I will add a light bar like you did for fog in the future
