Default Front fog light beam pattern

I recently removed and refitted the front bumper on my 2001 C70 coupe. Now the front fog beam pattern seems to focus towards the centre of the road to the right of the front of the car. Is this correct?

Many thanks.

They only shine a short distance in front and are very wide beam pattern.
But they should both illuminate the sides of the road well.
You can set them up on a beam setter just as you can headlights.
The big thing about them making sure there not set too high or there no good.
Very few people bother to set up fogs.

Many thanks for your reply. One thought I had was that I had fitted the lights on the wrong sides, but I remembered the brackets would not let that happen.
