Default Bumperettes delete

Happy new year everyone!

quick question, when deleting the front bumperettes are different sized markers required or can I run everything that’s existing?
also I know someone on here was doing custom bumper hole delete covers, anyone know if they’re still around?

TIA!

When you remove them, it leaves a gap between the turn signal & the fog light. So, you will need the longer signal lights to fill the gap.

Best done at the same time one is replacing the bumper cover for other reasons as one can buy the ROW cover that doesn't have the openings for the bumperettes.
My car is a daily driver and gets about 25,000 miles per cover depending on how much time the car spends parked in grocery store and other public parking lots. I suspect here on the West end of Richmond the proliferation of women shopping in Ford 4 wheel drive lifted F150/250, Chevy Suburbans, the really huge Cadillac Escalade or Lincoln Navigators where some can't really see over the hood has something to do with it. Women and big trucks, must be a Southern thing?

i actually just bought an S bumper with Euro lip from another member to upgrade my OEM c2 bumper. So I’ll be doing a bumperette delete along with a light swap for break vents.

They are no longer available but if you have a euro cover they are not needed.

You can get good money for your old undamaged bumper cover on eBay!
