It won't fit in the fog light hole, most people mount them on top of the bumper. Nobody is being silly.

Hmm, so either custom fab something, buy correct fog lights that will fit, or get a new bumper?

No, just drill two holes in the ripoff the bumper and bolt the lights on, it will take five minutes.
