Re: bumper foglights

Thanks guy's. I did the lights back before any vendor's sold the bumpers with the cutouts. I had a friend @ work do them. I had him do the bumper bolts as well. I had it done back in mid 90's. Just had the tag area done 2 years ago Thanksgiving on the last paint job.

That looks cool, but do you know your bumper is crooked.

Yes I know it's one of those things that happen when u drive them. Yes it's still like that today. I just couldn't see going through all of it again.
I had a dog run out in front of me. I almost got stopped. He stoped dead in his tracks though! I hate he died but I couldn't help it. He got out of his owners fence and just darted right out into the road. I was happy he didn't tear it up worse but I did feel bad about the guy's dog.
The worst part was he was standing in the yard and saw it happen!

I have no idea how far off center they are now. That's been awhile since I done it. The opening is 4" though. They are inside the front frame rails also.
I know this is a old thread but I just saw it up again.

Re: bumper foglights

I dont have anybetter pictures ATM.

I put 4" LED running lights/blinkers in my bumper.

Im tossing the idea around of Blitz blacking my truck, and tinting over them.
Tint because id like to pass inspections with ease.

Please dont pay any attention to the LT1 harness thrown across the fender. ha

That's what I figured, but couldn't tell from the picture. Your close up shows it great.
I was afraid He would post a pic with his arm out the window.

How much difference can there be between those years.. I have a 72 GMC Jimmy 4x4 and I want this bumper but don't want to end up sending it back either.. Anyone know for sure of the attachment points are the same or different..??

Re: bumper foglights

71 and 72s have the turn signals in the bumper, that's the difference.

Edit: Oh sorry Jimmy not Chevy, I think the 67-70 is refering to Chevys not GMCs. The GMC bumpers have dips on the top for the turnsignals below the headlights, not sure if it's all years, but my '70 has them. LMC list the bumper for 67-68 GMCs not 67-70 that's the years for Chevy. Every GMC bumper is either 67-68 *OR* 70-72 not sure what the difference is, but I'm curious too.

Not photoshopped - well except for the license plate. I put a 71/72 bumper on my 4x4. The fog lights came off the shelf at Wal*Mart. I wish I could find a set of lights that fit the hole better but it works for now.

Why does everybody blur or change their license plate? Is it a black helicopter thing?

Re: bumper foglights

Oh and I control them through a relay from a switch in the cab under my ignition switch. The top switch turns on my back-up lights (which also turns off my surge brakes on my bass boat so I can back up the boat trailer). Bottom one is for the fog lights.
