Does anyone out there have any tips on installing fog lights on a 01 F-150. There are no cut outs on the vinyl lower portion of the bumper. I can custom cut them, or mount them just below the bumper. Any tips or thoughts on this would be appreciated. :idea:

I'm assuming you have a 2wd correct?

If you wanted a stock look, you could always replace your valance with one from a 4wd with the fogs already in it.

Otherwise, I'd suggest cutting and mounting them in the valance. I don't think it'd look right having lights hang down below.

Just my $.02

Wow, all the way from New Hampshire, welcome to the site :).
It all depends on how much you want to spend, and how you want it to look. Like Tray said you can buy a 4-wheel drive airdam that already has the lights, etc. as part of it, or you can get an aftermarket airdam such as the PIAA Airdam that you could put other aftermarket lights into. There's about 5-6 different companies that make airdams, not to mention bumper covers, etc. It's only limited by your budget :).

When the wife had a Jeep. (now the Ex-wife... Thank God!) I took a hole-saw and drilled through the front bumper so just the lenses showed through. It was a cool look, but the front bumper on a jeep is basically just a peice of C channel so it was easy. The angles on your bumper may make it not worth it, but it's something to consider.
