That's exactly what happened. The cheap *** bulbs they used in them caused some bad heat damage. Along with the wreck angling the bumper up, and having the water sit in there for so long... it did a real good number on it.

I use sylvanias in my fogs and they got heat damage too. Even with a stock replacement bulb. Pretty common

Wow, I remember when my truck looked that clean. Right after I purchased it new and before the winter of 99 in Michigan.

Nice truck!

Nice truck!
Thanks! I live a block away from the beach, the damn salt air is starting some surface rust on the frame. Roofs got a little too.

Very clean! I like how you color matched the steps. Looks as if you did some type of heat shield by the pipes. What did you use for that?
