I reversed the bolts that are welded to a plate. so now I unhook the fog light clip. And unbolt 4 bolts and its off. SO much better.

yea mine were $50/each....and that would look good, might have better results actually painting a lip instead though, and then running a coarse brush through the wet paint (you dont want a rough lip or it will peel)
