Default Ideas

I know I can get a lot of ideas from all of you.
I put a short windshield on and then lower wind deflectors. It is all working quite well.
I was so focused on finding a way to stop the turbulence, that it took me a few days to go DUH! I have HD fog lamps on my engine guard and the lowers block a lot of that light.
SO...
I could cut off part of the lowers.
Cut holes in the lowers.
BUT...not taking off fog lamps..I cut holes in the engine guard and buried the wires.
So any ideas, not matter how crazy sounding are welcome

If it was me I would lose the lamps instead of cutting off or making holes. Can you move the lamps to avoid the guards? That would seem like the easiest solution.
