    Not sure about the yellow fogs. I will have to think about that one. I have blacked out everything but them. My next project is the bumper. Chrome stinks.

    I know what you mean, but when you have a black truck chrome just looks ugly to me.. Here's a pic of a friend of mines truck, to me way to much, but thats just me :laugh: this was after we did the headlights

    Pretty sure the covers are made by Lamin-X. It's the only brand of covers that I know of. A lot of the BMW crowd that has yellow fogs will use these instead of buying "french" (yellow glass) lights.


    Here's a link for the covers for the fogs:
