Someone did my idea. Which means it’ll definitely work! But according to the guy that did it, it requires some welding and trimming, and I can totally handle that. This is gonna look great after I paint it the way I want

Seems like a lot of work for something not worth it. I thought you were keeping your Ranger stock?

The reason I want it is because its an elegant foglight design and I want foglights. And that idea to keep my truck stock was out of my head months ago, now I’m going for a “what if 90s ford did it this way?” Look. A parallel dimension stock look so to speak

Do it! Just don’t ever put rubber bands on your tires like the example photo.

Its better than the factory ranger option:
and I dont want aftermarket fogs

I freaking hate those chrome wheels. If I ever put less sidewall on my truck, its coming with a modest suspension drop to sedan height. but That will most likely never happen

That could be interesting. If youre ever in colorado look me up!

No. I dont want em slapped on there. I want them integrated into the body work. But I may tint the fogs yellow

Looks basically the same to me. Why do you need fogs? Just get some rally lights and mount them on a bull bar
![]() 11/18/2015 at 23:31 |
|
Its a lower valance with big bulges for the fogs in it that looks superglued to the bumper. Its hideous. I dont want my fogs slapped on there, I want them integrated into the body work. We get torrential snow here, like walls of the white stuff. I sometimes need light down low

Why are you so persistent in convincing Denver not to do what he wants to do to his car?

I too would like to know this

Those look like C5 thin spokes too. I wonder what he did to get GM wheels on there and why he went that route instead of some nice Mustang rolling stock.

I have no idea, but honestly his wheel and tire choice irks me

I don’t mean to piss in your Cheerios but having owned several vehicles with fogs and living in a similar snow land...They aren’t really that helpful for the snow. Rain? Yes. Snow? Not so much. Not to mention they get snow covered in about 5 minutes. If it’s worth it to you for the looks than great, but the additional light thing is going to be a let down.

Well, I’m in it for the looks too. Plus an entire bumper is only $45 at
U pull it. And honestly any extra vision is better than no extra vision, even if its a marginal amount

Am I not allowed to express my opinion?
I’m not the law, he can do what he wants. I personally think the Explorer bumper idea is silly. Didn't realize that having an opinion was against the rules

See my reply to HondaBro. It’s nothing personal, just my opinion.
![]() 11/19/2015 at 03:28 |

Quite the conversation. I will throw my opinion in for shits and grins.
I like the look of fogs and the thing I really like about those is the depth that they are recessed. That stands out for me.

looks very factory, and I like that look. For 40$ why not give it a try! Did they document all the changes you need to make to get it to fit well?

ITT how to spend time and money to make your front bumper look like a Subaru Forester.

I dig it. subtle, and it seems to flow. and your wheels are a million times better :D

They didnt document it, but they described what they did. I think I know what they meant
