The Gray section below the headlight of my car has a huge hole in it! It''s the section where the fog light would be if I had them. A piece of tar flew off of the road and hit it when I was on the expressway! I don''t even know what it''s called, and it seems relatively easy to fix...I just don''t know how to do it!

I would just upgrade and get foglights but this seems like something that could be fixed for under 50 bucks. I''m afraid to take it to the dealer because I don''t want them to tell me how expensive it will be because they have to take the bumper off or some crap. Can someone please tell me what it is called, where I can buy it from, and how to install it! Thanks!

more than likely, you need to pull off the front bumper. it still isn''t as much work as it sounds, just a little time consuming. search for how-to''s on some other forums.

I"m sure it mounts as a fog light would in which case: pull the front splash shield off and reach up in there. It''s probably held on by a couple of small screws... in my case ("04), 3 screws.
