Re: The plastic pieces under the marker lights

just pop them out and paint spray paint them black. That's how I fixed mine.

You can find the pieces at the dealer. They weren't that expensive when I had to replace one of mine. I think they were around $3 a piece.

Re: The plastic pieces under the marker lights

i imagine if you go to the parts guy at a dealership he could tell you waht they are called. if you don't have a dealership i'll try looking it up for you on the receipt for the deer

Re: The plastic pieces under the marker lights

ive heard that they're a bitch to take out b/c unlike the regular marker lights which mount from the outside, the "vents" mount from the inside which means the bumper has to be removed. but neway, thanx for the input fellas

They're easy to take out. I just unscrewed the turn signal with a phillips. Then you can reach into the bumper behind the "fake vent" to unclip it. Each one has a V-shaped hook holding it in. Squeeze each hook (there are 2 of them per vent) and it pops out.
