How hard would it be to get a 2006 bumper with fog lights to fit a 2004? i need a new bumper <previous owner couldnt drive for $**t> and i also want to do retrofits on the fogs to see how hard it is <before i tackle headlights> and i like the look of the 06 round fogs with halos on them. is it just a matter of drilling some holes into the 06 to get it to line up?

In 2006, the bumpers (front and rear) changed mounting points as well as being cosmetically different in the front. They will not be a direct swap, but it can be done.

Here's a thread talking about and showing someone who did it: http://www.f150online.com/forums/200...06-2008-a.html

And I'm with you on liking the 06-08 bumper better!

Hmmm strange.... I've always liked the 04/05 bumpers better than my 06. But I came from a 93 Ranger that had round fogs, so I guess I just felt like I was going back in time with rounded fogs. The rectangle fogs are still my favorite to this day.
