Default Fog lights

I'm not using the front spoiler and was wondering if is possible to mount the fog lights from the spoiler on to the bumper???
It's an '88 with factory bumper.

thanks

With the lights built into the upper grill. It keeps the lights off the bumper

The grill from DAP looks sweet, but I'm broke and was thinking of a cheap way to add more light. Would there be any down side to mounting them straight to the bumper?

I'm not sure about the aftermarket grille but the fog lights are bolted through the nudge bar.

My buddy just offered to give me back my old Hella 1000's that I used to have mounted on my Jetta and then gave to him to mount on his Mustang...

Funny.. I was at his house last Friday looking at what happened to his CHERRY MGB that got rearended by some moron in San Francisco and were talking about the foglights on his 1965 Cortina GT (cool ass car!).. I was thinking how the ole' Rallye's would look good on the Rover inplace of the weenie lights that are mounted on it now..

Well the next day he emails me and asks if I would like em back as he is not using them.. ha ha.. He's had em for a decade.. and now they are coming back to me.. strange!

So I can't wait to mount those up...

They are Rallye 2000(much bigger than 1000s) - and I just realized that they are much more appropriately sized to your Rover than any of my little weird cars....

And actually they aren't the originals - remember? The originals were stolen along with the entire crappy mustang.... but the insurance replaced them.

it was time for them to return home.....

Default Update

Well I just back to Maine and was playing with the fog lights today. The lights are too deep to mount on the bumper They would stick out more than an inch in front. Guess I'll have to save for a better bumper or nudge bar.
Thanks for the input and encouragement.
