Bumper and Fog Lights

So I have my 1994 Ford F350, and I got in an accident last week. So I'll have to replace the bumper on it. I want fog lights so that I can do a projector retrofit. Why do it, cause I don't want round projector housings on a truck with no roundness to it. So I'd like to get some square fogs, and do the retrofit.

I know there's a bumper out there that has the cutouts in it, I just don't know what the part number is etc.

Can someone please help me out with where I can get one, a part number, what it's called, or something like that please? Thank you!

the front bumper your after is: F3TZ17757AB
i got mine here:
Discount Body Parts - front bumpers - 1995 Ford F-350 Bumper

then of course you want the left/center/right trim pieces.
i got the left/right there too,but they were not a perfect fit.i had to trim one side off,and trim the rear clips/snaps to make them fit.pretty minor though,was easy.if your very particular,you might want to just get OEM ford ones.cus these even trimmed to work,are not a perfect fit when up close.im not this concerned (its a work truck.it doesn't need to be perfect.just clean and presentable.)
the center they didt have in stock so i grabbed that off ebay.

the fog lights i used were super duty fogs to fit the two large holes.tight (and hard to do install.these are a bit too big for the holes.but the end result works good.so glad i did it.-they're not adjustable though! so for function,id recommend smaller fogs.however i got lucky,they seem to be well pointed.kinda have to be i guess.they're forced to point straight lol.)
some ideas for ya anyway.

of course your likely interested in the looks (please excuse my goofy air dam lol.that's for fuel economy and works great,so i deal with it) in the finished results on a completed truck:

Nice, thanks man. The super duty lights are the small square ones aren't they? I wonder if there are any out there that are more of a rectangle that I could do a custom retrofit in with the projectors.

Thanks, I'll look further into it. I think someone said something about Hella 550's in another thread. I have to see what those are and look like.

I've got Hella 550 on mine. They fit and look perfect. I'd just use them they way they come, don't see any point to projector retrofitting them.

X2 on the Hella 550's. I had them on my truck for a long time. Almost a perfect fit for the holes.

For those that want a factory looking fog light switch, I used one from a mid 90's Explorer.

No reason other than I decided to go back stock. I'll put them back on once I can find a Lightning bezel and switch. I refuse to cut holes in anything.

I like your thinking. Thats exactly what I wanted to do. This is as close to that as I could get. I couldn't find an L instrument cluster bezel and switch.
