A vehicle structure includes a body, a bracket provided on the body, a bumper cover attached to the bracket, and an object detection device attached to the bracket.

A vehicular push bumper light assembly includes a frame, a frame tube coupled to the frame, a frame tube opening, and a light plate cover affixed over the frame tube opening. The light plate cover includes one or more light plate cover openings. The vehicular push bumper light assembly also includes one or more light plate assemblies. Each light plate assembly includes at least two light elements that are disposable through a corresponding light plate cover opening. The first light element may be disposed through the first light plate cover opening and the second light element may be disposed through the second light plate cover opening.

A vehicle information display apparatus includes: at least one processor configured to receive a vehicle state of a vehicle, and detect a forward object ahead of the vehicle; a flip-dot display installed in the vehicle and configured to implement a pixel by rotating a flip disk; and an illumination module installed around the flip-dot display, and configured to illuminate a surface of the flip-dot display.

Provided herewith is a customizable bumper system for a vehicle and a related method of customizing. The customizable bumper system includes a central weldment that bolts onto a frame of the vehicle. The central weldment includes a height adjustable hitch receiver attachment structure in the form of an array of parallel holes for attaching a hitch receiver at a selected hitch height position along the central weldment. The central weldment also includes a pair of height adjustable extension attachment structures in the form of arrays of parallel holes for selectively attaching a respective pair of lateral bumper extension members upon which one or more selected light components are optionally installed. These lateral bumper extension members are also attached at a selected extension height position. Additional component attachment structures enable one aftermarket components to be optionally installed upon the central weldment.

A fog lamp mounting structure comprises a front bumper skin, a fog lamp bracket mounted on the front bumper skin and a fog lamp cover plate mounted on the fog lamp bracket. The fog lamp cover plate comprises a cover plate main body, a plurality of clamping parts formed by flanging from the top edge of the cover plate main body for clamping one edge of the fog lamp bracket and a plurality of cover plate buckles provided at the bottom edge of the cover plate main body. The fog lamp bracket is provided with cover plate buckle mounting holes matched with the cover plate buckles. Mounting of the fog lamp cover plate can be achieved when the X-direction gap between the fog lamp cover plate and the fog lamp is small, and a vehicle appearance is not affected without increasing cost.

A lighted vehicle part includes a vehicle step pad attachable to a vehicle. The step pad has a stepping surface configured to permit a user to step on the stepping surface when loading objects into a vehicle on which the step pad is attached. A downturned lip extends downwardly from the stepping surface. A light source is mounted to the step pad in such a way that the light source can emit light from the lip.

An apparatus, according to an exemplary embodiment includes, among other things, a single-piece bracket having a first mount interface configured to receive a fog lamp and a second mount interface configured to receive an actuator for an active air dam. A method according to an exemplary aspect of the present disclosure includes, among other things, injection molding a single-piece bracket from a plastic material to include a first mount interface configured to receive a fog lamp and a second mount interface configured to receive an actuator for an active air dam.

The present disclosure provides a lighting assembly configured to mount to the front-end of a vehicle without removal of an existing vehicle grille or fascia. The lighting assembly of the present disclosure further provides for lighting on the side-facing edge of the front-end of the vehicle to provide for improved visibility resulting in safer operation of the lighted vehicle.

The disclosure relates to a lighting device, in particular for integration into a vehicle surface, having a cover with optically opaque surface areas, a light-source carrier, arranged behind the cover and having a plurality of light sources, and signal structures which are arranged between the surface areas and can be illuminated for light emission, wherein different signal patterns can be adjusted by selective control of certain of the light sources for trans-illumination or illumination of one or more associated signal structures. The disclosure further relates to a vehicle, having such a lighting device, and to a method for carrying out various signal functions with such a lighting device.

It is provided a bodywork part made of painted plastic material consisting of a single plastic material, and in one piece, comprising a first zone having a first thickness and a second zone having a second thickness, the first thickness being greater than the second thickness so that the second zone has a higher transmittance than that of the first zone.
