    I just got this N-Fab light bar, plan on putting a 30 inch LED light in it. Im happy with the way its built, real heavy gauge metal.

    I was going to buy the same mount. When you install this can you post some pics from the side. I would like to see how far it sticks out with a standard bumper.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    I will be sending it back to CARiD.com due to some significant dings in the top of the bar, must have happened in the warehouse because it was wrapped in tons of bubble wrap! But I want another one so as soon as I get it back & installed I will post pics from different angles. Besides the dings, I was really impressed with how well built it was. Especially compared to my fathers Lund Bull Bar I pulled out of the box, you can punch that thing and put a dent into it! Very thin metal.

    I want a bar on the front too... debating either a 40” behind my pro grill or one that mounts in/on the bumper opening.

    Problem is I don’t want to cut it and I don’t want to lose light from the grill slots. If I didn’t have a platinum I would change the front bumper that has a light bar cutout lol. But I don’t want to lose my parking sensors.

    I'd do the light bar in the bumper. My two light bars in my grill are as bright as my single light bar in my bumper. Also I just think it looks better. But that is if you have a limited or platinum grille.On a TRD Pro Grill I'm sure the light output is lot better

    Has anyone installed this bar? Wondering how hard it is and if the bumper needs to be removed.

    The cutout would be in line with your squadron fogs. That might aesthetically look balanced since you have the mini LEDs in the top of your grill lining up with your headlights

    So, I finally got the time to add some bars. Both are 30". The upper grille lights are double row, lower bumper grille is a 30" iJDMTOY single row with bracket kit.
    Also used a Blazer C3050K wireless remote system as a controller. No wires to run into cab.20181230_073954_001.jpg

    Anyone buy a 30"+ light bar and remote control set up (I don't want to install switch or wire)? If so, where did you get it and how much? I want to install at the bottom part of the front bumper
    opening. Thanks everyone!

    Hey KFed- how do you like the top bar behind the honeycomb grille? Do you have the radar sensor in your emblem? What mount did you use for the upper bar? Thank you- I have the same grille with the radar behind the honeycomb grille and trying ot decide if I want to add a bar behind it. Getting ready to mount one in the lower bumper.

    ncorry, The upper light bar was an Ebay deal I got. Its about as bright as the lower bar (loss of light due to being behind the grille) I have had no issues with the radar sensor other than the usual issues prior to the lightbar install. As far as the install, it came with mounting brackets( I feel they could be about 1/2" higher as it does sit a little low behind the grille. I may add a 1/2" spacer in time.) behind the grille is a cross member support that it it mounted to. I regret not taking photos of the install.

    I have the N-Fab bar and a 32in light bar on mine. The only issue i had was the paint flaking off but i plan on having it stripped and powder coated.

    I've got an N-fab light bar on mine too. It has a 42" Caliraised LED bar on it.

    @rj1022 got some questions for you or anyone else with the n-fab. Where does this bar attach to? Also just wondering if you had any pics in the daylight. Its hard to tell how far out it sticks out. Its good to know you put a 32” light onto the bar. For some reason I thought the bar would only hold up to 30”.
