The stock fogs wouldn't fit with a FMIC so rather than run empty foglight holes I decided to get everything mounted up and then run the biggest FMIC I can fit to fill the space.
i have the FMIC right now just like you have yours, but i was wondering how was the fitting with the votex bumper.. here is a pic of my current set up
