    I plasti-dipped my chrome front bumper yesterday and figured I’d see how it looked with the paint above it also coated.

    Should I leave it all black like the picture or peel off the upper bumper so you can see the paint?

    Also, headlights obviously need an update.

    Sorry it took so long for anyone to respond. FYI>>>>A coworker has a 07 with glazed over headlights. He bought a decent restore kit. His headlights looked good.......for a couple months. Some folks here will tell you to try this or that method. Don't waste your time. Look for some decent pull offs from a 13 on Craigslist. Quite possible a member might still have some in the garage collecting dust. A new set won't set you back much either.:thumbsup:

    Hey, are those factory or aftermarket fog lights? My ‘07 has plastic inserts but I’d like
    to get some cheap ( inexpensive ) lights.

    As far as I know, these are stock fog lights. If not, let me know!

    I used a cheap headlight cleaning kit a few weeks ago and was impressed with the improvement, but now they aren’t so sharp. I definitely feel like they are already hazy. There are some awesome headlights out there-...will keep an eye out for sure
