I feel ya! I actually register mine in the mountains so I don't have to deal with inspections or emissions. I couldn't pass an emissions test if the guy was blind! No catalytic converter(fell off because the pipe broke while driving on wash board), no bubble by the bumper and no charcoal can by the engine. What a waste of space and resources. My jeep goes where everyone else's vehicle can't. Plain and simple I DO NOT need to pass emissions!

They're KC Daylighters, I've just always called all aux lights fog lights. Bad habit, but I know what I mean.

that's the important thing
I just didn't want you buying fogs and throwing them on your roof, thinking they'd be a life-changing modification.

Not exactly perfect, but it looks a hell of a lot better than the 20+ year old fiberglass. Still putting the molding back in. I am a little mad that it sags in the middle (the entire board) without the dome light though.

Why did you replace your waterpump? One of my pulleys are squeaking but after the engine heats up it goes away.
