I did this on my old ranger a few years back. I painted the gutter stuff the same color as the truck. Post some pics if you got em. i might do this on my current truck.

I did mine too and now i got lights mounted behind it.
I never thought about painting it.. i might have to try it.

forgot last night had some stuff to do..def i will post tonight....I still need to hotglue it..Im not gonna paint it cuz i like the look..I cant figure out where to place my foglights when i get em...on the stock bumper or behind the grill, thats a good idea but does the lights shine as bright?? and if i run a bigger bulb that 55w will it not melt the plastic grill.

Mine are mounted behind the grill, and it has not burned it at all.
Iv'e never mounted any on the bumper so idk if they would be brighter or not, but there plenty bright.
They measure 5 1/2" tall and 2 3/4" deep, It's like night and day comparison to the stock headlights.
I can't help you on the bigger bulb, 55w is what i got.

You need a photobucket account- it's free.
upload them from your PC, then copy the img code.
