    :cheers:Good job on that bar How much time and money did you spend making it? I really like the end of the tube. Sweet bar and a sweet satisfaction knowing that you made it yourself

    Actually the CNC brackets needed to be modified. I don't have access to a CNC so I had to do it by hand, with a 10" grinder.:D

    That's too bad! I feel like that's more of a design error ... :D It looks great though. What are you going to change?

    the 500's are good if you compare them to a hallway night light... I converted mine to HID's and now im very happy with them! :D

    That light bar is almost identical to the N-Fab/Smittybilt.

    Hmmm....in that case I may just go for two PIAA 520's for now, I'd like four of 'em but don't have the cash. Thanks for the input

    Sorry I can't answer that. I still haven't bothered to hook them up yet. They were cheap. so I guess you get what you pay for?

    You're right! I copied a prototype of the N-Fab before they started selling them. :D
