Quickie design opinion please

I want to mount some driving lights but which position looks best? (bearing in mind that the headlights and side lights/indicators are fixed in position, allbeit with gaffer tape at the moment)

Option A means cutting new holes in the bodywork and option B means modding the grille. Please excuse the crudely photoshopped grille

a) looks "proper".
b) looks like those stick-on chav things from Halfrauds.

So that's another vote for A then

Neither - clutters the clean design. You simply don't need them

Definately A. As has been said before B looks like a Halfords boy racer no thought job.

'A' looks thought out and intensional whare as I think 'B' looks like a bit of an afterthought. just my opinion though.

?

What about converting the existing indicator holes to driving lights and mounting some new discreet indicators pushed out to the corners?

Perhaps something from a sportbike?

Interesting idea but as I have only just got the front section remoulded to take the new lights I am reluctant to make any radical changes at this point.

Thanks for all the input guys - looks like I've got to get my jigsaw out again.

definitely a:

with B: the girll will need strengthening to hold the lamps and it will reduce air flow too.
