What's that thing hanging off the right-front fender? Looks like a headlamp or IR light source. Whatever it is it won't last long hanging out there like that.

It's a bad depiction; the headlamps do extend beyond the seam between the two glacis plates, along with the turn signal lamp. They extend perhaps two inches or so beyond the front glacis plate, over the initial downward fender (the one about 45 degrees to the horizontal). A tubular guard protects the lamps from damage. It isn't clear from their depictions, but to do any significant damage beyond ramming something from the front into the lamps, one would rip off most of the armor on the side, and the tiedowns. The only thing really on the fender is a mirror.

Go to the GM-Defence web site and check the PDF brochure on the right. It looks like it's a module holding both. And it is on both sides with the support arms of the rear view mirrira protecting it. I'm not sure ir it's overhanging the sides or not.
