Same here.

 

Thank you! I currently have duel 40 inch light bars behind the pro grille but I’m debating removing them and going to the round lights due to the hoop.

 

I want an Overland rear, so that's three.

 

Four.

 

Group buy is the answer. Keep those five new employees busy.

We understand lead times could be long. We can be patient. Tundras.com is for nice people.

 

@C4 Fab - you've got commits for a handful of bumpers here. Think we can work out a group buy?

 

Might be a bad time for it. They are slammed. I ordered my rearbumper like 2 weeks ago. Estimated completion date...December.

 

i might be interested in gen 2 hybrid bumper with full hoop...

 

Welcome from Illinois and Missouri!

 

I’m in for an overland front bumper

 

I don't mind the wait and I'd assume everyone else is aware of lead times. Plus, I bet they'd like the cash!

 

December will be here before ya know it.

 

would be nice to offer a powder coating option too if possible.

 

Honestly, it's hard to ship a powder coated bumper and have it arrive pretty. My work puts bumpers on most of the trucks, and almost all of them arrive with scratched or worn off powder coats that require touch ups. Freight companies and their warehouses just aren't careful with them.

 

@C4 Fab has stated that their PC contact is far away and like the azurite nightmare stated, it would be damaged in shipping making the customer upset at C4 even though it’s the shippers fault.

 

Thread opinion question. I currently have duel 42 inch light bars behind my pro grille. However, once my @C4 Fab overland bumper arrives it will have the full hoop on it to clear the Pro sensor location. I am debating pulling the duel light bars and installing the Baja Designs LP9’s on the bumper like the C4 Tundra due to the fact the hoop and grille will be in front of the light bars potentially blocking a large percentage of the light output.

Thoughts? Opinions?

 

Your upper light bar would be fine as is. The lower one might be blocked a bit by the bar's two uprights, so that might be worth relocating or removing.

 

Upper light bar with the C4 setup. Hot.

 

I have the @Caliraisedled duel light bar bracket, so I am sure I can take the lower one, re-drill some holes under the top light bar and have two up high. Or remove them, sell them used (less than a year old) and get the LP9 set up.

I love it and it works really well. Top bar is a spot and bottom is a flood driving combo bar.

Self induced first world problems.

 

Leave top bar. Remove bottom bar. Add Baja to bumper. Put additional light bar on top of roof!

 

My mind just imploded. Now I need to research roof light bar mounts. I do not know if they make a roof mount bracket for a 42 inch bar. Most seem to be for the 52 inch bar since that one fits the width of our trucks better.

 

LP9 setup ftw

 

true but I think I'd rather touch up the bumper when delivered versus trying to find local powdercoat guy and wait again for another 3 weeks. or maybe get it unfinished and spray Steel It all over it at home.

 

I tend to agree, but I am guessing we would be in the minority. Lots of customers these days are absolute jerks over the most minor imperfections or inconveniences. By only offering it bare, and clearly stating it, C4 can remove one whole topic of complaint. Way better than fielding a bunch of calls about damaged powder coats and having the mob get their pitchforks and torches over some images on social media. There would be plenty of people who understood, but there would be plenty who didn't, and that translates to losing potential customers.

 

for sure. maybe have a disclaimer on the site for whoever is interested in the powder coating. bumper gonna get used and banged up on the trails anyways

 

Alternatively, this. I love the Rigid lights.

 

@Flytrap50 from the top ropes!!! Sick truck.

 

@C4 Fab should rename this thread to something else like the C4 Fab thread so anyone with their products can help out and answer questions or post reviews etc.

 

Don't put a lightbar on the roof. Especially if you're planning on white light. In rain or foggy condition the white light will just reflect and blind you. I agree with the others. Move your lower light bar into the bumper like they suggest and keep the upper light bar as is. Add LP9s to the hoop.

 

Even dust reflects back. Not a fan of roof light bars.
