Ford F150 - STX bumper cover question

Z1 STX · **Posted:** Mon Jun 20, 2005 5:16 am

Hello all.
I am the VERY proud owner of a 2003 STX Flareside, 4.6L automatic in True Blue. (I'll change my avatar when I get my new headlights installed)

My question is this... Is the front bumper cover unique to the STX, or is it also used on another F150? I do realize that the STX cover is different from the Lightning.
The reason for the question is that I would like to figure out a way to "fix" the fog light problem, as well as expanding the search parameters for grill components.
Thanks everyone.
Jim

It's unique. The Harley cover is similar in that it bolts under the bumper, but the contour near the fogs is a little different as well as the opening.

What's the fog light problem that you are refering(sp?) to?

I was referring to the way the fog lights tend to point to the top of the trees, even after they have been adjusted. Although I haven't removed the lights, I was thinking that perhaps a small shim could be utilized somehow.
BTW, you have perhaps the sharpest F150 I've ever seen. I'd really like to pic your brain on some things. Helluva job!

Thanks

As for the lights, I know what you mean. Right now I don't use the lights unless the road ahead of me doesn't have any oncoming traffic. As for shims I've been thinking the same thing, my light are pretty bad especially since the rear has been lowered one inch more than the front. I've been kinda lazy so the lights still aren't fixed.
