    Thanks. I used laminX. If I had more I would just send you one. I got dark smoke.

    I used a cricut to cut it. I can give you the exact dimensions you’ll need to plug in.

    https://lamin-x.com/universal-fog-light-film-covers.html

    You have to use plain water only when applying this stuff. If you think you’re gonna have to move it at all which getting it just right on this garnish- alotta times you can do fog lights with no water, but I would recommend it on this job so you can get it just so Laminx is very forgiving as well

    Soapy water will make it bubble.

    35% tint looked the best but wasn’t sure how long it would have lasted.

    OEM, yes. counterfeit, yes.

    From what I have seen, the counterfeit skid plates don't have the raised area I circled in red (instead it's just flat with the rest of the plate)

    upload_2023-10-29_21-53-0.png

    Most sub $200 non-oem plates, no.

    Was on some icy roads above 5000 feet today on my Toyo M/Ts. Got the M/Ts in September, having liked them on my FJ. Great off-road, but if this cold weather continues, I think the M-55s are going on for the winter for highway driving.

    One thing you may try, I get this stuff at NAPA called "Kroil", it a penetrating oil that's the best I've ever used. It's expensive, about $20 for a small can, but it's worked for me when nothing else has. Also, if the penetrating oil doesn't work, try heating the bolt, I've gotten many a stuck both out using heat. I'm on the coast of NC, so rust/corrision is a big thing, I'm always dealing with bolts that don't want to come out. Best of luck to you.
