Was this done by cutting two holes in a Horn Grill ? or custom ? Looks good and allows for Fogs and emergency driving lights without relying on the pop-up buckets if they fail to operate.

Looks custom to me.

Like a stock grill was cut, and then a ring welded in for the second light.

Lotsa work.

I did a test fit. Placed two pilot fog lamps behind a horn grill. No fit. The original fogs are even larger. So must be custom

We talked about it after Gustl ( I think) took this picture and a couple of others at an Euro 914 get together.

Obviously this would be much easier to do with a F/G bumper. Maybe I'll try. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

If you work with a FG bumper and 2 grills for each side, seems like the grills could be lengthed to accomodate the 2nd light (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Oh there's a market for them, I assure you. I'd be interested depending on price. =)
