    I picked up a very good condition 4 tab nfab light bar over the weekend from local TW member. Missing the mount brackets, but am in touch with nfab, hopefully they hook me up.

    It is gloss black powder coat. Kind of shiny for my taste. Will also be adding SOS sliders in a few weeks when they come out of fabrication. I will spraying the sliders in bedliner. Will the gloss black light bar look funny with matte black bedliner'ed sliders? I am thinking of spraying the light bar in same stuff. Thinking lightly sand, primer and coat. Anyone done this?

    Also, will be adding 4 lights to the bar. I am so up in the air as to what size lights. 4-5" lights, 4-7" lights, or 2-7" in center, and 2-5" outboard???

    Thanks !

    Either use a DA sander or really rough 3m scotchbrite pads to get the gloss finish off the lightbar, then hit it with the spray can bed liner.....personally I only would need 2 light tabs for some 6" lights
