Quick Post - did this upgrade twice....once on my wife's sedan, and then on my 2015 Genesis Sedan.
1. Order OEM LED lights and wires from ebay
a) Here's a link to the lights http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-OEM...nesis-Sedan-/152637164100?hash=item2389e24a44
b) Here's a link to wires http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Genuine-Fog-Wiring-Harness-Connector-2EA-For-2015-2016-HYUNDAI-Genesis-Sedan/232239538608?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
2. Raise nose of vehicle using jack and jackstands, or car ramps
3. Remove plastic fasteners from front underbody panel (approx 12)
4. Remove (5) 10mm hex bolts from front underbody panel
5. Set underbody panel aside
6. Remove (5) 8mm hex nuts from both right and left blank panels (these are plastic panels that cover the foglight openings on your 2015 Genesis Sedan). You can identify the location of these bolts by looking at your new foglights and noting the holes around the perimeter of the light. After you remove these, the blank will fall away easily, or with a gentle push from the front towards the rear of the car.
7. Test fit each foglight to identify the correct side for each - there is a right and left foglight.
8. Note the location of the threaded studs that are attached to the car at the foglight location. Several of these will be hard to access once the light is in place so you'll need to remember where they are.
9. Insert the right foglight into the right opening. Refasten the (5) 8mm nuts. Foglight will seat in the opening of the bumper.
10. Insert a mini fuse tap into one of the accessory fuse locations (20 amp) but install only a 10amp fuse for the foglight circuit. The fuses are located to the left and below the steering wheel on the dash.
11. Run the power line from the fuse tap through the grommet in the firewall that provides access to the hood release.
12. Attach a ground wire to the bare bolt under the hood, just in above the left front wheel. This will provide ground to your foglights.
13. Connect power to your wiring harnesses noting the correct polarity. LED lights only work when the polarity is correct, so if your lights do not illuminate with your first approach (positive to wire A, ground to wire B), switch the connection (positive to wire B, ground to wire A).
14. Once you have determined the correct polarity, connect both lights.
15. Wrap the wires with friction tape at points where the wires might repetitively rub against metal and other components. I used plastic conduit to protect my wires.
16. Wire tie the wires every 16" to ensure that the wires will not oscillate while driving at any speed. Movement is OK, but constant repetitively movement is not.
Good luck!

One click up from auto gives exactly what his 2017 Legacy looks like (read: cool).
