Over the years that’s my body count 🤣. I try to avoid hitting animals while driving but at 4am in the dark the raccoon didn’t have a chance at highway speeds. He was pretty big, sounded like at least a 15-20 pounder. Popped out the lower valance which I was able to just wrestle the clips back into the bumper but Ruined my foglight bezel. Fogs work just fine. Now I’m trying to find just a replacement bezel without buying the whole damn kit.

That sucks sounds like you got shitty luck like me. I would contact diode Dynamics directly via email and see if they would either possibly send a free bezel or offer a single bezel to purchase.

Just finished doing that actually. Let’s see if they respond. I know to some it’s not that big of a deal but I’m pretty ocd about stuff like this.

That's a bummer. I just put the dogs in from them. If something like this happens to me would like to know from you how Diode Dynamics responds.

Awesome news.
DD just got back to me and they have a replacement kit for both side bezels, rear rings and hardware for $85 shipped.
It should be on its way soon.
