I have searched for a while and cant seem to find a front bumper. My truck has the chrome bumper without fog lights. I want the painted bumper with fog lights. Anyone know where to get it?

or you could take this chance to go aftermarket depending on the direction of the truck and what you want to do with it.

or you can get a TRX / Outdoorsman bumper - its a painted steel bumper, comes in mineral gray from the factory. I had mine painted silver to match my truck

Anyone have a how to convert steel bumper to plastic? I tried fitting my plastic sport bumper cover on in place of my steel one and it was way off.

You need to get the mounting hardware for it. The hardware is different for the plastic bumper.

Yeah the price of the hardware is around $1000 from the dealer I thought? I know someone that managed to do it with the steel bumper hardware but not sure how he did it. I cant seem to find the hardware aftermarket or on ebay for a decent price.

Holy Moly $1000 just for the hardware!

My bumper is just the plain chrome and I have been thinking of trying to find one with fogs lights looks like its going to be a fog lite kit instead of changing bumpers for me.

This is a good idea...especially if you can have the shop get Keystone CAPA certified parts at his cost and pay him to paint it.
