    I need a new 32” light bar, preferably all FLOOD and I’m frustrated searching Amazon and eBay looking at crap.

    Who here in TW is a reputable vendor for such a product?

    I think @paranoid56 is a baja designs vendor..

    I got a aux fuse panel plate from him a while back, and have been very happy with it. Maybe give that avenue a go..

    I looked at the Auxbeam product on Amazon...I just trust recommendations from TW members more than Amazon reviews.

    Additionally I wish I could find an only Flood Bar with no Spot lenses.

    I'm running Aurora LEDs, I have a 30 inch single row combo beam in my lower bumper grille, cubes for ditch lights, and rock lights. They haven't fogged up or given me any trouble at all.

    Does anyone sell only a flood beam instead of a Combo beam?

    I've only ever seen combo for 32 inch. You could have one custom made, but I don't know how much it would cost.

    Yeah, I’m replacing a single row led OZ USA bar up top in a Prinsu rack...frankly the led bar sucks ass.

    I already have front focused spot in the grill. Wanting to add flood coverage up top.

    @memario1214 can get you a great setup from baja designs, not too sure if he offers any other brands. Great guy and his customer service is the best! :thumbsup:

    Rigid makes my front pods and @CaliRaisedLed made my ditch lights. Both are great. I did have an issue with water getting into the rigid pods when they got submerged for a short time but they took care of me.

    A flood on the roof is going to give you some nice glare off the hood. Personally, I'd run a beam up top and floods in the grille.

    I made a mount that moves my current light back so the Prinsu air fin block light from hitting the hood.
