Alright so...I hate telling this story cause I feel stupid haha, but I was coming home the other night and the entrance to our driveway are two tall piles of snow on either side that have pretty much frozen solid now.

I was pulling on the same side of the road and there was a solid line of traffic coming so I couldn't do what I normally do, pulling out to the other side of the road to cut in, and by trying to take that sharp turn, I hit the snow.

Not like I hit it and the car just stopped there, I hit it just lightly enough to keep going and swipe the snow away.

I was nervous at first that I scratched up the bumper pretty bad, but it was way more.

The bumper isn't lined up with the light anymore, there is a large rip right around the outside of the fog light on the bumper, and the fog light itself was pushed in from the snow that got pushed right in.

So at first I thought there was just snow in the hole, but when I cleared it out I found the light was actually pushed all the way out of it's ..home..thing.

Here are some pictures. The reason I'm posting is...from the pictures can anyone tell if I'm going to need a full repair like a new bumper, or can that be pulled back through? The cosmetic damage I can kinda overlook for now since I'm sure this wouldn't be covered under insurance hahaha, but I want the light back! I love my fog lights lol and I'm sure you guys (who have them) do too! It still works, I turned it on to make sure, but you know..

As long as the clips that hold it in aren't broken, you can pop it back on.

and is this something I can do on my own, or does it require really taking some **** apart to access it??

You'll have to remove the headlights, but once the headlights are out you have clear access to the fog lights, you shouldn't even have to remove the bumper.
