Like this catera duck.

I really like what you did with it, it looks slick. The roof rack is fine but I think it looks cleaner without it.

I wonder what it would look like with an old school hood ornament...

This is the right idea.

This is the best idea.

Everything is the same, there just isnt much actual offroad support for these trucks, mainly sub frame drops and 30" rims.

Well that kinda sucks. I'd say more fabbed police pusher than stinger type bumper, but I don't really know poo poo.

If you're made of money, Rigid has a tinted bar that's plenty bright, the Midnight edition series.

# ? Apr 5, 2016 18:17

I considered doing it to mine to hide it better (it's mounted behind the bumper), but ended up deciding it wasn't worth losing the light output. Which is good, because no one notices it anyway.

Hey OP: Maybe put a couple smaller lightbars behind the grill? This hides them pretty effectively, and doesn't diminish light output as much as tint probably would. Or get that Rigid Midnight edition, that would work too.

lol no, this will most likely be an ebay special light bar.

Like I said, if you're made of money...

You can get an Amazon bar and install a smoked lens cover... I've got rear-facing a dual-color (white/amber) bar under the rack on my truck, it's great.

# ? Apr 5, 2016 19:32

Krakkles: May 5, 2003

Likewise, I've got several eBay special LED bars and they've all worked very well - brightness comparable to the Rigid bars of similar size, good beam pattern, good build quality.

Light bars aren't at all something I'd recommend brand name for.

Truck looks so loving government. Like you're going to stop at any given moment and stride out saying "Shut this down, shut it all down". Like you ride it between the office and the pad for the black helicopter. Like there's two guys sitting on each side of a little alien that looks like a hammerhead shark and a turd had a baby.

This is why you have to fit it with a law-enforcement style pushbumper. Screw all that stinger/brushguard garbage.
