    I’m sure this is already on a topic somewhere but wondering I maybe getting an nfab bumper in the near future from @831Tun and need a light bar for it. Now I know the theory you get what you pay for however I just can’t throw 1600 on a light bar and fogs. I’m looking for a middle ground light Can anyone recommend a good light that’s not crazy money?

    I run Baja design squadron sports with wide driving lens for fog lights. If you aim them properly there should be no problem. As for the other bar, check Amazon for a 38-40" bar. A double row fills the space nicely. I may have one to get rid of. I need to see what the new bumper requires before I commit. Also, check the @boardude build thread, he's got a precise description.

    Yah I was def looking at the Baja for the squad and fogs. Saw that rough country makes a light bar with good reviews and the guy at side tracked off road in sac said he makes his own so that’s something I have to look into as well. Yah dude sounds good no rush can’t wait to see your new bumper did he ever tell you when you are gonna get it ? We’re suppose to get some crazy rain soon. Ok cool I’ll check him out for lights thanks as always dude

    I have a 40” bar from Diode Dynamics. Excellent quality and very bright. Good compromise of price.

    I just ordered the Nilite 41" LED bar on Amazon. It had great reviews. $79 There is a video of one for the hood bulge on the lighting forum. It's not that big of a gamble to me when you are talking $79 vs $1,000 or more for domestic stuff.

    @realtorblake just mentioned the one I had in the bumper. It was a very tight fit.

    I have a single row bar just above the license plate area 32" and 30" double row inside PRO grille both from Rough Country easy plug n play wiring both very bright, especially with new '19 PRO headlights and Baja Designs fogs, I'm overall happy with both light bars no issues, RC bars fairly priced, looking into pod lights for ditch lights, and there 6-8" slims for under rear bumper

    Maybe someone else will chime in to assist you with the NFab front bumper, from what I've seen, mainly straight light bars, I could be wrong, hopefully someone will helpnout

    Yah I’ve seen those it’s juts so hard to know what’s good. Like I said I don’t bomb deserts or go wild just the lighting for Tundra’s suck I’m gonna get some pro headlights but would rather spend it on the fogs cause I would use them a lot more then a bar
