Do like the racers and put brake vents in the hole for the lights.

Find the dimensions and do a google search for similar/slightly smaller fogs. Be the first to rig your own

Or for ducts rather than spending $150 I'd make my own..

That's what I'd do. And make custom trim pieces to make it look more like stock.

After advise from this site I purchased a set of Chevy silverado lights, waiting install on my turbo front swap project. They fit well but will need a custom bracket.
