    It's hard to give an exact measurement of how much light you lose, but in my personal opinion, it's not enough where you would even notice. Its all on how you want your truck to look.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Ok Im just debating on cutting the grill tabs or hiding the light bar I figure if Im going to add a bar I might as well go big or go home lol so Im leaning toward cutting it and doing a flush mount

    I am not too positive like I mentioned before, the stealth and flush when illuminated a very similar and it's very hard to tell the two from others. It's all on aesthetics how you want your truck to look.

    Thanks!

    Gotta love they made that indent in the grill that light bar looks like it was made to be there.

    Just installed the hidden light bar. Thanks CaliRaised! Had to relocate my license plate and I think I like the new placement…. Might have move it below the light bar

    Could you please tell me the difference of the

    32" Dual Row 5D optic Osram LED bar
    5D Optic 32 inch Osram LED bar combo

    Also will the light output on the hidden bar be restrixcted by the bumper?
    And last, is this plug and play? does it need relays?

    A combo beam pattern is a combination of a spot beam and flood. The outsides of the white LEDs have flood reflectors, and the center of the bar is spot LEDs, which makes for a nice overall throw of the light. A spot beam does not have the flood reflectors, so it is best for very concentrated, long distance light projection.

    As for the light bar, there is no restriction, and the light output will be great, the kit comes with a full plug-and-play system.
