Default Dimensions of a Saph cossie front foglight?

Anyone know the size of the foglight, I'm looking at changing the look of the car a bit and considered putting these in their place, or just meshing it up. Why does noone do foglight grills for a saph???

I used an old set of fog surrounds, bit of pipe an a lot of filler an made my own, a lot of fucking about, but got there in the end...
Just tried to measure mine, but couldn't really reach in the front with it in the garage, but outer edge of what was the surround looks to be about 210 x 90 (mm)

Someone on here was making them, can't remember who, maybe twins? If not, I've seen them in carbon too, but either won't be cheap! There's a few cars I've seen with them on here....

i used to make the fog surround part of the duct which also make fitting easy.
i also used to make an oval to round entry as aids air flow rather than just single round entry, if that makes sense

Nice and neat when smoothed inside and out

They look really good! Should of been an option from new! Any rough idea as to how much? I know won't be cheap, I don't know how many hours I spent doing mine!?

It was an idea I had, now that I"ve actually seen what it looks like I'm definately going to do it! I've PM'd him and see what he says, but depends on cost as the duct inserts may be a cheaper option to cut and fit instead of specially made ones, we'll see...
