Im gonna check with dealership asap. not sure if parts department is open after i get out of work. That mesh fog light place holder is sold seperately, which led me to believe it is removable and I would be willing to buy it from your link. Worst case scenario i could cut it out. But its 25$ if i remember correctly from that ebay posting. Thanks for the help.

Still cheaper than if you'd of broken the fog light itself...

So you left the bulbs attached to the taillight assembly and unhooked the wiring? As opposed to twisting them out?

And it turns out, theres more then just my fog light cover that fell off. If you look closely at that pic, you can see a semi-circular crack in the bumper right above the fog light. Thats right ladies and gentleman i was the victim in a hit and run accident. I am devastated about it but i wont repair the bumper. Its just not worth all the money and hassle to replace the whole thing. The fog light bezel will cost me $30 for the bezel and chrome plastic piece from the dealership. I wont get insurance involved obviously, warranty is out of the question and i will never know who did it. |

Do you think the damage will affect the way the bezel fits? |

Just trying to throw some options at you so you would have more than one to think about. Yeah, the $30 seems like a great idea compared to the deductible. What all do you have in mind?

Ok cool that makes sense, thanks.
How much is your deductible anyways? Maybe it will be worth it after you get an estimate from a body shop. What do you guys think of plasti dip smoke instead of VHT Nite-Shades? Last edited by pkL; 11-14-2012 at 03:50 AM. |

Deductible is 500, lol but even if it was like 150 i still wouldnt do it, id rather have the money and live with it. I hate it actually lol. works better on the grill but id rather have a black grille over grey/chrome. If you try it post pics, you can always peel it off after. |

Yeah I do admit it looks pretty bad in that video there. I guess the smoke effect makes your taillights look too hazy? This guy put glossifier on it, which seems to help a bit but then again he is a pretty bad painter. Last edited by pkL; 11-15-2012 at 04:25 AM. |

Glossifier is better, ive never used it but i might add it to the list if i pull the trigger on gold metallizer.

Same thing happened to me, I was moving, guy behind rear ended me HARD and pushed me into the SUV in front of me and damaged the front part of my part. Rear car insurance declared my car totaled but the insurance don't want to pay for the ACV of my car, now I am taking him to small claims court. |

Yeah I like the second one too, it looks a lot better. Plasti dip smoke with a couple layers of plasti dip glossifier on it but it still doesn't look as good as VHT Night-Shades.

Thanks for that information. I haven't had a problem with them yet, and I have had them for at least 4 months now. Also I have done a 6 hour road trip with them on the entire time and haven't had a problem at all with them.

Does the HID in Fog have any improvement? They weren't great stock, not bad.
