New nilight bar from Amazon did not work (the light itself didn’t work.) Superbrightleds.com SAE approves fog pods on the other hand do work. But if you get the fog light adapters from Cali raised just know the wiring on them is backwards. Overall very pleased with the bumper, not super pleased with the cheap light bar. Painted with rustoleum self etching primer, rustoleum spray on bed liner, and some clear coat that I don’t remember the name of.

    Did the light bar itself not work or were you not able to mount it?

    The light bar itself did not work. Even with direct power no light output. I can’t imagine that there are many light bars out there that wouldn’t work with your set up, it gives a lot of room to adjust.

    Damn that sucks. It isn’t too hard to put one in with the bumper installed, just pull the grille off for access.

    Nah it’s not bad, I was messing around with it today like that. Fortunately Amazon is sending me a new one with no questions asked.

    Absolutely love these bumpers by ATH. Took a full day yesterday to install both, including lights, winch, and wiring but the bumpers were a breeze to put on. Needed my buddies help for about 5 min to help lift them on, but a floor jack is all you need for most of it. Even with the additional Line-X girth, everything lined up perfectly to factory bolt holes. Didn’t have any issues installing Rigid and Cali Raised lights with included brackets. Warn M8000s Winch installed with plenty room to spare as well. Morgan (w/ATH) was a pleasure to work with, and was promptly there to answer any and all questions I had during the transaction. These things are built for a tank and I’m loving the additional protection. Thank you for building such a great product. After much research, I feel I made the best decision with absolutely no buyers remorse.

    Gonna look good! Highly recommend getting it Line-X’d before installation. I’ve had no regrets.

    I went with fine texture black powder coat because I got a hell of a deal! Should be ready to pick up today. Planning on installing tomorrow.
