Once you get the bar install start measuring. go with the biggest LED bar you can fit in your budget. Brand kind of depends how much you want to spend, are you looking for the $100 china type, or $4k for the triple VizionX brand.

I went with a bull bar (still working out an issue with the install) and persinally just using some VisionX hi/low lights. they will work for what I need. 180 total watts from a bulb isnt a worse (360 watts for the pair, with both high and low on, should light the dark trails up enough for me ;) )

Looks good to me! I didn't even see it at first.
I'd just figure out how much LED bar you can fit between the outer mounts.

Looks good, I wish they would come out with this bar for '13/'14 models.

It should work.... it just mounts through the license plate holes. I had to widen mine a little bit for it to fit.

Oh good to know. Maybe i'll get one and try it out. I'll have to turn off my front parking sensors though, it's going to be right in front of 2 of them.

I went through a company in Greenville I order and install. They do use the factory mounts, and i used a bracket from Rigid. Was pretty cheap ($30 I think).

Do you have any shake with that bar? I had 4 Hella 700s on mine and they shook when I drove. The lights were on tight but I could feel a little flex from the bumper. The little vibration irritates me.

Post some pics of the light output when you get a chance. I would really like to see how good it lights up the night.

I will post some output pics tonight with my good camera any phone pics I have don't do it justice. I get a tiny bit of shake with the light bar but it's best solution I've found so far
