Hello everyone, I was thinking about color matching the plastic fog light cover, as well as swapping out the fog lights for amber ones. Do you guys think it's a simple job to remove covers? TIA

You can change the color of the fog lights from white to amber using the switch to the left of the steering column.

Hi I think they will just pop off but use a trim tool save breaking clips etc where did you get the badge of in the grill yellow/orange/red

Thank you very much for finding that thread. Doesn't look that simple.
You're welcome. It's hard to tell from the bumper disassembly PDF. On there, it looks like it's all one piece but I'm not sure if it's different from a 1958vLCvFE since some are color-matched (mine is).

Overall though, I don't think it's not too hard to remove since it looks like it's just the pop rivets/clips that hold the plastic bits on.

Might give it a try once I find the same Rigid fog lights in amber. Looking for plug and play.
 
Thanks for doing all the dirty work! Looks like I’ll be making a tint AND paint appointment
 
I know the 1958 doesn’t come with the Rigid fogs that the higher trims do, but is the space the same? Could you just plug and play the lights from one of those trims if you could get them?
 
It seems they only come in black. I’m eventually going to have them painted professionally.
Have you been able to confirm if the 1958 uses the same part number as the LC? I'm assuming so.
