hey all,

I recently removed the two filler pieces
from the front bumper to gain some clearance for bigger tires,…

yet, not happy with the exposed electrical
for the fog lights.
I’m thinking to dremel out the fillers
so it can be reinstalled as a cover for the fog lights.
Any other suggestions or ideas??

I ran mine without covers for two years. It's also easily replaceable if something happened to it.

I trimmed mine with snips and a utility knife. It looks ok, not a great finished product, but it’s a Jeep bumper. 🤷‍♂️ Another option is to watch Craigslist and pickup a bumper cheaply and just replace the whole thing.

I used a Dremel and then smoothed it out with a file. Looks good to me and my wife (it's on her Jeep).
