Interesting, that is the only way I could get it done. The fixture would not come out otherwise. The light fixture vacuum adjuster was in the way. It is possible the bumper sits in a little far. This one definitely had a minor crash at one point. The fenders and hood have newer paint. That makes me suspect about the bumper. The light looks nice with the aluminized mylar . It is brighter than the good one, and the tape is hard to notice. I will be happy if it lasts a year. I should have a work station with venthilation at some point. Then the Silvering will be attempted.
