435i F36 fog light delete

Asking fellow members in Europe or Asia who share the same problem of having fog lights on their front bumpers

I recently bought the no fog light grill (part number# 51118056493/4) to replace the current fog light grill.

The thing is that its not a really straight forward conversion. 1st alternative is to completely delete the fog (however error codes will pop out). 2nd alternative is to hide the fogs (but i don't know where and how to hide them).

Appreciate if any fellow members could share how they delete their fog lights.

Thanks in advance.

Well i was just thinking of completely hiding or deleting it. To get more of a OEM US m-sport look.

as an everyday driver my GC, i wish I had fog lights. Cant you mod them to LED or high bright lights for more of a status look when you're driving.

I understand the uselessness because LED/xenons are bright for driving. but fog lights have a certain cosmetic appeal to me.

They're hardly useless. When used as the name implies, in foggy, rainy or snowy conditions, they put out a lot of light down low and in a wider pattern than low beams, where they won't cause glare that makes visibility worse.
