I think the light bars look cool but I just feel like they are too main stream.... street queen...... status symbol..... played out..... not sure what I wanna call it. ya know?

I agree. Every sema truck this year has 42 of the damn things mounted on it.

bigger? no more travel? yes... if anything it will sit lower

Gotcha. So are you going to sell your 4.5 some day down the road then? LOL I feel like a vulture trying to get all your old parts. I do agree about the bars being everywhere. Once I posted and it updated I saw the pics of the truck with the three rounds in the grill and the row on top, I think that would be sexy. That being said I'll probably get some small bars/LED square lights for my pickup. I've got no need for the large bar on the roof though.

The lightforces give it a more badass look. I think maybe adding a tube hoop that comes up and out around the bumper lights would give it a more prerunner look. If you do end up with a rigid on the roof, wait for the radius bars to release.

Whether it matter or not just know that roof mounted light bars cause huge drag and make a very noticeable difference in mileage. I've always liked them but there is a place for them and they don't fit every truck.

This is the first I've heard of this. I can't believe a little 2" tall light bar would cause that much drag.

I was referring to the ones Matt likes with the big round lights. So much drag that on actual desert trucks they will cause a loss of top speed through certain sections. 5-10mph. Not that this truck would ever be lacking power in that sense.

It doesnt look bad, dont get me wrong. I just think the chrome clashes.

Color matched shell with black mesh would tie your bumper, headlights, steps etc all together.
