That is actually an area of low or even negative pressure.
At the base of the windshield the pressure is towards the car, i.e. higher than ambient. This is pretty obvious when you consider than pretty much every car made in the last few decades has used that high-pressure area as the ventilation system intake. Haven't you ever wondered why air still flows in even when the fan's off?

What happens when one changes the profile of the hood is anyones guess.
No guessing is required. The pressure will still be positive and air won't flow out of the engine bay while the car's moving.

The only FC's with stock yellow fog lights were the rare Japan-only S5 Infini models. Your chances of finding a pair are very slim...

^I have mounted S5 fogs in a S4 bumper before using the mounts on the housing and some angle iron from the hardware store. Then I just wired them in with a relay in-line.
