Well, there are different options you can go to avoid deleting the fogs from the ports (assuming you don't want the circular fogs in a rectangular area, or want to pay 1000 bucks for the bumper)... Why not then relocate the fogs to the lower grill, or even buy some led strips and put in there somehow on the ports? I'm sure some rectangular led fogs wouldn't cost more than 100 bucks...? Just throwing some ideas...

A lot of members do put LED strips in the ports. If you search around for some of the DIY threads and photo threads you'll see that almost everyone does that.

I just never understood why the DRL's needed to be there anyways. I always run with my Halo's on.

I personally don't like the DRL's on the T3 Ports

EDIT: LEDs may look better but I still like the clean look!

T3's with LEDs for the win!

It's personal preference and gives the front fascia a whole new look. It makes it different among other camaro's and gives it an aggressive styling.

And it looks better without a circular fog light in a rectangular area.

I like it and it makes me happy

Already posted my facia, but quite a few pages back. So here's a refresher

When i do my ports this winter im going to try something similar to the lights below and put them in the ports on the sides in replacement of the DRL...see how it works out

I'm going to put boxing gloves connected to actuators in there so when people walk too close to the front of my car I can punch them in the shins.

I think it's a good place to put either brake cooling ducts or CAI's.

Could you PM a link to those lights? Thats an interesting idea.

lcrngrs · 08-24-2011, 09:20 AM

Here is what I did. A friend of mine gave me a set of lights, that measure around 1 1/2" in diameter. Had them pop riveted to the sides and with minimal re-wiring here is the result. I wanted something small for the ports and this ended up being perfect for me.

and yes, they are round, the lighted pic is a little distorted.

I think those look much better, the size of the OEM DRLs is what throws off the aesthetics. Those are perfect!

LEDs for me...
