Hey guys this is one of my first post on Ramforum. I thought i would share a new mod i got. Its a 50" curved light bar with windshield mounts.
It took the mounts 6 weeks to get here, when they said it would take 2-3 weeks. I got the mounts from DP Dodge Light Bar Mount (Pair) | Diesel Power Gear I have some pics now, ill take better ones later and ill take some tonight. It makes my xenon hids look like flashlights.

Again,sorry for bad quality pics, ill take more tonight.
The noise from the wind on it is insane, quite loud, but im getting use to it. I didnt want a switch drilled into my dash so, i just got them to leave it out with double sided tape.
Ill answer any questions y'all have.

Haha thank you. To answer those other questions its a "Generic" light bar. I dont have the money for rigid or kc, although if i did i would get one.
Its pushing around 21000 lumens i believe. The wind noise is incredible, 5x louder than my 35 inch nitto trail grapplers. Ill be fixing that soon with door trim on the bottom four fins. More pics,

Siiiiiiiiiiiick. I want a light bar for one primary reason. Yeah sure, to bring light to a darkened path during my travel. The primary reason, is to hit that button, and rock someones world when they **** me off on the road. Just hit the hit button, and blast their retina with earth shattering light. Almost like a scene from national lampoons Christmas vacation.

Haha,thanks guys. I fixed the wind noise with cowles edge trim for like car doors. I has helped the whistle about 60%. I also got my digi diode pods(2100 lumens) for auxiliary back up lights. They should be on this week. I very happy to do this mod because with my 5% tint you cant see when you back up haha.

$150, nfab's are $165. I'm not going to lie to wind noise was unbelievable, i put some door edge trim on the some of the fins, the noise and whistle has gone down about 70%.Also just around 50-60mph my windshield vibrates. Its not bad at all really, you just need to get use to it. I should have my back up pods on tomorrow. Ill have some pics :favorites13:
