    I am currently looking to buy a lightbar.

    Is the Cross Fab bar the only one that has the light tabs located at the same height as the top of the factory bumper?

    I like everything about the Cross Fab, except the TRD logo and mesh in the middle. Just not my style. Do they make them without that extra mesh/plate covering the bars?

    I would be happy with an N-Fab, but I don't like how the top of the bar sits below the top of the factory bumper.

    Have you looked at Avid Off Road light bars. They sit about the height you are looking for.

    The Avid Offroad bars have the 2 light tabs at bumper height.
