lincolnboy November 15th, 2005, 05:49 PM option is the mk8 w/ foglights. i saw a 97-98 lcs mk8 the other nit in north richland hills sat. w/ fog lights. i know i have heard of the mk's coming factory w/ them. but anyone have a clue . look ook but only saw it from the side
VaeVictus November 15th, 2005, 06:04 PM I personally never heard of a Mark with factory fog lights to be honest. I think its just an aftermarket installation...I could be wrong though. Did the Mark look good in them?

Dern Humpus November 15th, 2005, 10:49 PM Im not a fan of any sort of foglight that isnt stock or look like is factory installation. They just dont seem to ever look the same.
On topic: I havent seen/heard of factory foglights for the mark either.
Jibit November 16th, 2005, 09:07 AM the MarkVIII never came with stock fog lights. However, the MarkVII was available with foglights but only the LSC.
Calabrio November 16th, 2005, 09:21 AM the foglights look good mounted behind the grill..
otherwise, I think they look very poor just hanging bellow the bumper.
Dern Humpus November 16th, 2005, 09:33 AM Hidden behind the grill is the only place Id think about mounting them, but still, I dont think I would go out of my way.
BlackIceLSC November 16th, 2005, 10:05 AM No Mark VIII came "from the factory" with fog lights. Many owners of gen 1's have added them to improve visibility at night due to the faulty stock headlights.
if it was a Black gen 2, it may have been this car(custom lower bumper valance off a Pontiac)

personally, I dont think the Gen 2's need additional lighting. I would have LOVED to see that lower front bumper on a gen 1, where it is needed!
The lower bumper is off a Pontiac...the owner is a body man, and melded it in to the stock Mark VIII bumper.
Jibit November 16th, 2005, 10:16 AM That actually doesn't look too bad, but it makes it look like a Marauder to me.
lincolnboy November 16th, 2005, 12:31 PM it was kinda like the ones that came on the mk7's hanging from the bumper
BlackIceLSC November 16th, 2005, 12:56 PM if that's the case, those are called "marchal" lights...definately aftermarket add-ons.
Lugi20 November 17th, 2005, 12:51 PM Wow, personally I think that that front bumper looks amazing! I would like to see it with the more muscular lines of the gen1 though.
Lincolns Own November 18th, 2005, 03:29 PM i wonder what part of missouri he is from... is he apart of these forums?
PioneerCrazed November 18th, 2005, 07:23 PM He's a member at markviii.org
The guy's got talent, no doubt! I also like how he blacked out the side window chrome. Suddle touch that gives it the sinister look...
JC1994 November 18th, 2005, 07:43 PM now that's the kind of ingenuity that I can respect. I do think it would look even better on a gen 1....
VaeVictus November 18th, 2005, 08:47 PM Jibit...I'm with you on this one..I was thinking Marauder as well. The car overall looks pretty sweet...at first I was a bit wary but then it sunk in. Looks great.

Lincolns Own November 19th, 2005, 03:32 PM anyone good with photo shop who can put that on a gen 1?
Dern Humpus November 19th, 2005, 05:29 PM That looks damn good.
