Hey guys im looking to upgrade the front of my truck and decided i want to fill the blank void where they stock fog lights should go. Does anyone know where to get some stock lights or one that will fit in the same spot?

Ebay or a J/Y to find stock

Want some cheap ones go to Wal-mart or an auto store.

I swapped the whole bumper assembly and added a factory switch:

While this is obviously not the easiest of cheapest way, it is the most factory looking. The bumper is a used Ebay item, the valance is a J/Y find, and the lights I got from a member on here. I never could find a set that looked right in the rectangular openings on the OEM bumper valance.

I was also thinking of getting a painted bumper like (i think) the edge models

from a distance my edge colored bumper looks great... up close, you can see the small chips and imperfections. the way i see it, if your truck has chrome or aluminum wheels, go with the chrome bumper with black valance.
