Modify Front Bumper?

Wondering if anyone has found an aftermarket product or if anyone has modified the current front bumper on the 05-07 trucks? I like the look of the 08 and up with the fog lights out under the headlights. I don't think it would be too difficult to grind a couple holes in the outside of the bumper but I was wondering if anyone has actually done it?

Thanks in advance.

I saw a guy put on the 2011+ bumper on his truck, said it bolted right up. Only prob was that there was a significant gap between the headlights and bumper.

Awesome, that's exactly what I was looking for. I don't mind a gap that size as I wouldn't have even noticed had you not pointed it out. I may have to look into one of these with some LED fog lights.

Thanks for the pic too.

The fix to get the bumper to sit higher under the lights is to trim some of your grille off and also elongating the mounting holes.
