    That sucks. The problem is that I don't really know if it would look good black either. I think color match might be the way to go but $$$$$$.

    best option would be to save the money for a professional to wrap it with vinyl or have a shop spray it.

    No I don't think so. I think its just blue lights are illegal. I will look into it at work to give a definit answer. I am almost 100% sure they are legal, just as long as you don't use them while on the road

    I want to go with yellow lights on the rear of the factory rack...but kind of worried it will look like ass against the green/white :eek:
    yellow would look good on Jacks black fj...

    but then again...I am not adding them for looks. My guess is Yellow would be better for dark/foggy conditions

    Yes yellow cuts threw dust better too and doesn't reflect back in your face. That's why trophy trucks etc have amber liight covers

    Just throwing my opinion out and I know it's pricey, but if your putting it on the roof rack I would get the rigid industries d2 dually. It's a 2"x2" light that packs a serious punch. It also comes in white and amber

    I had yellow fogs on my bed bar pointing backwards. $15 bucks from harborfreight and they were actually really bright! Walmart sells some little bity fogs for like 15-20, throw some amber bulbs in those for like 3 bucks off ebay and BAM!
