Electrics aren't my strong point. But anything is possible i suppose, will have to swap the bulbs for orange, may just be a case of extending the wires to reach the front fogs!
But you'd have to check the llegality of where indicators have to be as in they may be to low there!

Not big on electrics myself, but points you may need to consider, including the legality of height due to visibility, Bulb fixings. Fogs tend to be H1 bulbs or similar, not the mahosive bayonet attatchment that most indicators are......could paint a H1 though I suppose 
Voltage. Headlight and foglights are supplied with big voltage to ensure you can see at night  ......im not sure about the legitimacy of blinding people by indication 
Other than that, I don't see any reason why the circuit can't be extended down to the bumper……you'll need to do that, otherwise you'll need change your fuse and relay switches to get them to blink the correct lights

thanks, i've been tryin to look for rules regarding indicators and i can't find any. i may try and mount some indicators in the front grill. (my mate in his vw caddy 1987 did this usign side indicators of a mk4 xr3i but left the other bulbs connected to keep the flashing intermittent) does any one know about laws regarding indicator mounting?
i hope it isn't to much hassle........
