adding OEM fog lights to 1999 Ford Ranger 2WD

I just purchased a 1999 Ford Ranger with moderate front damage to it. The only thing that I can save off it is the grille, driver fender and headlight. The hood, passenger fender, Radiator Support, bumper all need to be replaced. I am checking prices on all parts. I am debating on whether I should keep it the 1998-2000 front...or change it to the 2001-2005 front end..or the 2006 to current front end. I have a 2WD...but I want to have the 4WD bumper valance with the fog lights in it. How hard is it to install the fog lights to make it like OEM. Would it be different with the year model front end I put on it?? Please post picstures of everything like this you have done to your ranger so i can see whats involved and so I can see how yours turned out. Thanks

I changed the fenders because of the flare holes but thats optional. You would end up with an extra turn signal bulb on eac side up front. Your truck is already wired for the fogs, you just need the swirch and pigtails.

I already had the fogs but your truck has the plug behind the dash for the fog light switch. A bezel with the fog light switch is the easy way or you could wire them up with your lights.
