Neat idea as long as the build quality is there. I don't see any real venting for heat.
As long as you don't mind losing an actual fog lamp for a DRL, you could rock them.
There is 16 Super Bright Flat LED on each side, acting as a Daytime Running Light that gives you an aggressive and eye catching look.

Well I want to go with the black style lights still but wanna run stuff that was made the way it is and not just put tint over it. Like with these and the halo ones, can I not just rock a stock style bulb, LED or HiD style bulb in the housing and call it good. Not use any of the junky wires and stuff that come with the kits.

I did Lamin-X over my stock foglights and it came out awesome. It wants to wrinkle but you have to use a hair dryer on it for a long time and you can work out all the bubbles.

That's what I had before, stock tinted fogs.

Every aftermarket fog I've seen, whether it's the halo or the full led setup, has sucked on light output compared to stock. I imagine that full led one to be dim as shit.
Having said that, I'd go with the halos (and just not hook up the gay halo part).

Yea, I hate the halo rings, So does the stock bulb and wiring just hook right in like it would on the stock fogs?

On the halo headlights it does at least. Should have a bunch of wires spliced into one socket.

I have them on my sxt and the halo headlights and just about to open both up and custom do both in red with red demon eyes in both.

IMHO, go with the LEDs if you basically want to make your fog lamps lose all functionality besides "looks."
Any fog lamp over 4,300k is basically useless. The higher the kelvin, the less amount of actual light output there is. The main point of a fog lamp is to illuminate the markings and sides of the road in weather that causes poor visibility.
By the looks of those LEDs, which appear not to be any less than 6,000k, (this also goes for those ricers who run 10,000K HID PnP kits thinking they're cool) their functionality then becomes no more than an off-road-use-only appearance mod.
