Exclamation Fog Light stud broken

Noticed my lower fog light (drivers side) was broken. I took it to the Roush Dealership and discovered 2 of the plastic studs connected to the Bumper cover were broken and were too short to tighten the Tin nut to . The service Manager called Roush and they requested some pictures to show the broken plastic studs...... to make a long story short; the new bumper cover is on the way . Thanks Jack!
Anyone else have this problem?

After I hit the semitruck tire on the freeway at 80 mph I had the passanger fog light knocked out. I didn't want to run this through insurance or anything and certainly wasn't going to pay for a new bumper myself.

All three studs were broken but had enough to line up and support the fog light. I ended up using some high strength body shop bumper glue. It came with hardener and all. I put up the fog light and glued it all in and so far no problems at all. The foglight assembly is two pieces so I can pull the fog light out of the bracket and get to the bulb when needed. I like this much better really then the cheesey stamped steel nut.

You hit a tire' going 80 mph, that's all the damage you did.
You're lucky, you didn't tear, your front bumper cover up.

I hate when shit like that happens
There's all kinds of crap, on the road to watch out for.
