    How are the lights above the factory fog lights attatched? I need some more lighting but cant afford an aftermarket bumper right now and that looks like it would be perfect!

    just wanted different things.

    i either drilled into the plastic and put a piece of flat bar under to make it alittle more rigid. or i drilled through to the subframe of the bumper and bolted though that. i remember i tried 2 or 3 things and finally got all the vibrations gone, but i dont remember what the final remedy was.
