you cant just buy the 1's on AM, those are aftermarket replacements, so you have to have fog lights on the car already to install them. You would need a harness and a relay and the mounting bracket for the fogs, etc. i dont know if any v6's came from factory with fog lights(I've never seen any). but vmptuning makes a fog light kit

yeah but that stangmods kit looks WAY more professional then the vmp kit, i dont know if its $150 more professional but the vmp kit is kinda ghetto. i didn't kno stangmods made a kit.
EDIT: its 300 for the clear lense kit but only 210 for the oem lense kit

What makes the vmp kit seem ghetto? It's a legit kit.

Cut out the 3 horizontal bars in the fog area for a cleaner look.

IDK just doesn't look as nice. The VMP instructions make it look like it was DIY and not an aftermarket kit, not saying its a bad kit but looks kinda messy from the pics.

You HAVE to cut out the 3 bars
Youll also have to buy a harness to even have it fit in there... You see the two pieces that jut out at the top, right above the bars? Those are screw holes... Theres also a few holes under the fog light hole when the harness fits in perfectly.
Its a bit of a struggle getting all the bolts in with the bumper still attached, but it is possible.

Because you won't be able to torque the foglight lugs without messing up your bumper.

GT bumpers are made of stronger material. V6 bumper will shatter from the stress.

That's why they put those horizontal bars in the V6 bumpers, structural support.

I had to make make reinforcement braces for the back side of my bumper, I have steel tubes bracing the bumper against the radiator support.

Ill have to get some pictures of it sometime. It was quite costly and time consuming.
