Where can I ground my fog lights?

I started installing my fog lights today but couldn't finish cuz I had to go to work. I'm wondering if there is a good place to ground the fog lights near the bumber. The wire I have to ground the fog lights is only about 10 inches long. Thanks for the help.

I think there is a whole loom of grounded wires right behind the passenger side headlight, but yes, any metal surface should do.

I'm just wondering if there is some metal on the lower bumper, I've tried looking around and all I see is plastic.

You can lengthen the ground wire so it will reach metal.

Alright, I'll try and find a screw that is in metal somewhere. I hope there is one close enough so I don't have to use extra wire. Thanks for your help...I'll make sure I post pictures of them when I get them finished.
