    These are as bright as $300+ rear bumper lights, but cost $20. Well maybe not as bright, unless you need to see a football field distance while you are backing up. Spend your money wisely. Unless you are a pro racer, why spend a small fortune for lighting that you may not need. Do you actually drive 100+ mph at night under the worse possible conditions during the Baja 500/1000 ?????? or just want to be cool and spend money for nothing?? Just saying. I won't spend $400+ for a 20" light bar. Crazy. IMHO. Why not use the money to improve 4 wheeling capability as in a locker? Rebuild-able shocks are way down my list too. Way down. Somehow over the years, we have forgotten what truly makes a decent 4X4.

    Every now and then I see some decent prices for high end light bars/ bumper lights on Craig's List. They made be used but a good way to save a lot of scratch if you want the best lights. Same thing with rebuild-able shocks if you don't mind used and are on a budget.

    My curved 50" is "domination lighting" I think they are built very well it's held up so far and fair pricing for quality. That's the brand I'll stick with as my cheapo 30" craps out. It's getting s little moisture but it evaporates out the next day but it'll be a domination when I change it. Plus the inside is black versus silver and I like that. I'm not sure if they have those flush mounts though. I'd have to check but I'd like to paint match all the chrome on my truck and when I do I'm replacing my flush mounts and paint matching the face of those too.
