Abstract: A vehicle fascia assembly includes a main body portion adapted to be interconnected to a frame of a motor vehicle and a horizontally elongated lamp having an inboard end and an outboard end. The lamp, which in one embodiment is a sidemarker lamp, is normally retained in an operative position within an opening in the main body portion of the fascia assembly and is permitted to move relative to the main body portion during an impact to accommodate elastic deformation of the main body portion. In the preferred embodiment, an inboard end of the lamp is interconnected to the main body portion of the fascia assembly through a resiliently deflectable mounting member. The mounting member is preferably constructed of spring steel.

Abstract: One embodiment is a bumper fascia support for supporting a motor vehicle bumper fascia wherein the bumper fascia generally has a C-shaped transverse cross-section with an upper skirt and a lower skirt. The bumper fascia support has a front side and a back side relative to its position on the motor vehicle and comprises an elongated platform and at least one base member connected to the elongated platform. The platform is adapted to be attached to the upper skirt of the C-shaped bumper fascia and has an upper surface and a lower surface, the upper surface being adapted for supporting the upper skirt of the C-shaped bumper fascia. The base member is adapted to be attached to the lower skirt of the C-shaped bumper fascia. A second embodiment is a bumper fascia support and reinforcement assembly for supporting and reinforcing a motor vehicle bumper fascia.
