bassmaster1061,
I'm not sure I understand your question. The truck you have in your sig would have the same bumper as the one in the picture. Do you possibly mean the lower valance under the bumper, with the foglights? If so, the valance will bolt right onto your bumper, and there's different ways to wire up the foglights. I actually changed the entire front end of my '98 with the original style grille/bumper/valance and replaced them with a '99+ front end. Every piece had to be swapped. Check out my album to see pics before and after. I've seen the valances with foglight cutouts on Ebay for ~$50 to $100 (I'm kinda guessing), but the foglights themselves are a little pricey. I paid $80 for the 2 lights. I didn't wire them the recommended way with the factory kit that connects to the headlight switch. I didn't have the $300. I just wired them in parallel off of the parking lights, so if the parking lights are on, the fogs are on. I live in serious deer country, so there's no such thing as too much light.
Anyway, I'm not sure I answered your question or not. Hopefully so. Give us a few more details if you were asking something different.

Well. I got into a fender bender that dented the chrome and bent the whole thing down a bit then I hit a dog and cracked the lower valance and knocked of the fog lights. If I could bend the bumper back into place then I guess I could just replace the chrome piece and the lower valance. Would bending it back be possible? I can take a couple of pictures if that would help. Thanks, Mac
