Ok...I promised the next project would not be a plumbing job.
Originally the front hood had this "bow tie" on it and the lower valance was full of stone chips.

This past winter the hood and the lower valance were removed and my son repainted them, the "bow tie" was removed and the lower valance was repaired and repainted.

When the valance was reinstalled I did not put the fog lights back as they did not do much and I wanted to find a better light. I have not been able to find one yet that fits in the hole.

The wires droop and the connections are getting dirt and crude in them.


So until I find the right light I decided to put the lights back in.
They were originally riveted in place.

So the rivets had to be removed.

I replaced the rivets with stainless steal bolts, and reinstalled the lights and plugged the wires back in.
