Default New bumper with built in fogs, swap stock fogs or?

OK
I am getting the Hanson Mid Bumper.
I am mounting fogs on top of the bumper which I will activate with a switch for wheeling.

I also plan putting fogs in the bumper (like the stock JK bumper as Hanson has the holes for it) and I will run these off the stalk like the stockers. I tend to use them quite often when driving on the road so I can't have something obnoxious bright BUT I was wondering what you guys think. Are there any lights I should consider that don't cost a fortune and are much better than the stock or should I just move the stockers over?

Delta makes a replacement set w/ 55w Xenon bulbs for 'round $150... (3039-JKX)
PIAA-510 series can be had in a 4" for 'round $200.
Eagle Eye Lights has some nice 4" superwhite halogen 100W for $45 ea. (... they have many other choices. Check out their site.)


Then send me your factory fogs for a great price.
(ya know, like a finders fee! )

Well after talking to a few people here in MI I am better off keeping them stock
less likely to cause trouble with police as we aren't supposed to drive with
fogs and headlights on during normal driving BUT most do and most aren't
bothered.
