    Well I can weld but the fab part not so much. Now my dad on the other had if we had the time I would have had bumpers a long time ago. Tim does make a great product and even if I did do my own fab work I wouldn't mind paying for products like this.

    Well i have 4 Hella 500s that are 55w HIDs. But eventually those will go on the roof. So i think ill end up with like 7" or 9" lights up front. Ill prolly get some Hella 700s and try two of those out up front. For fogs...Idk..Prolly the 4'' PIAAs. have read those are pretty bright.

    Yea I have seen many ppl run the PIAAs and most likely what I will run also. I was looking into the Lightforce lights for up front and if and when I put my roll bar in may get some cheap HIDs to run.

    Yea im going to order the Allpro bed rack and try and special order the roof rack attachment for my 500ff HIDS. They work great. Stupid bright haha

    And yeah i looked at lightforce 170s. Seem like good lights. I like how you can adjust the beam. I also like Hella 4000s

    Did you do the conversion or you bought them like that? The thing about getting Hella is that everyone has them I kinda want something different.

    To me they look funny, I like the clean look of about a 6-7" light. Now a 9" one will put lots of light out there so yea that would be good.
