Does anyone have pictures of off road lights mounted directly to the bumper?

    I am just curious what a pair of IPF 968's or similar lights would look like mounted directly to the bumper without a light bar. Thanks!

    I saw a picture a long time ago of someone who did it, but can't remember where. He had 4 rectangular lights, which isn't really my style. There has to be something solid under the very top portion, but can't remember how much is just plastic. I guess that pretty much answers my question, though.

    How hard was it to remove the bumper?

    Get a light bar or fab up something from the bumper support but the bumper will not hold.

    I have an N-fab bar, which is a very nice and solid light bar. I just keep having issues where people (including myself) constantly bang into the lights and knock them all over the place. Whenever I do use them, which isn't a lot, they are pointed off in every direction. It's also a pain to go through a car wash, which is extremely rare, but that knocks them off too--predictably. Just searching for different ideas. :)

    Definitely interested still in how it goes!


    I haven't quite decided yet, how much or if I am selling the N-Fab. I have an idea to replace the lights I have, but the replacements that I want seem to be only available through one source... who is rather difficult to get a hold of.

    I may be keeping them until after my next road trip, and then getting rid of them. I'll let you know though if I decide.
