Ok, I posted earlier about looking to convert my 2009 fog light housing to a chrome or led. After reading through the posts and doing some more research was much more involved and required new bumper, ect.
I figured probably too much deal with for the return. I found some chrome aftermarket plastic trim with 3M adhesive.... take a look at this and let me know what you think.
I was at the dealer today and first glance he thought it was LED (lol). Anyways just sharing if anyone else out there is looking for a alternative cheap solution that gets you some of the way there....
