Good luck.
Have you priced the replacements? I got sticker-shock. Even the aftermarket are $400+- new.
Carparts.com, RockAuto

I lucked out and stumbled on a sale, aftermarket

love that dark knight look. For the OEM fogs, you might check into the Z-offroad 4.5inch replacements from Amazon. They have dark backs and put out a white light as well as being adjustable like OEM (just a suggestion)

I put in Liteway Smoked LED's since that picture was taken, even with the sun hitting them they are darker.

I also took off the front plate and put in the boost bars and changed the wheels.
