    I love the way the bars run the length of the bed. Perhaps with a little gentler curve, as shown in the 2nd pic (but not so friggin' fat!).

    Would be great if it attached to the bed rails the same way @RelentlessFab does their bed bars.

    ...and while I'm dreaming...
    Perhaps an optional spare wheel mount?
    Perhaps some filler plate across the two bars at the top for mounting stuff like off road lights and machine guns? :D

    Those aren't chase racks. Both pics are factory roof racks with a basket, and a wannabe 80's tube "Roll Bar" in the bed.

    This is a broed out chase rack.

    Forget the roof rack. I just want the "wannabe 80's tube roll bar" then. I'll admit I think it looks badass.

    The tubing alone wouldn't be much more than a $1k fab job, would it?

    Only problem is the third brake light.
    ...perhaps a vertically flattened section in the middle with mounting holes for a stock 3rd light would do the trick.

    Thanks, @JoeCOVA.
    I wish the bars were flush with the roof-line and I wish the angle down was a bit gentler, but it's pretty darn close!

    Edit: Looks like they're completely obscuring the 3rd brake light... I wonder what the legality issues are there.

    I'm sure they could make one cab height, though I don't know. Thats a good point about the brake light, I see some slats but not sure how they work.
