Default New Light Bar with PIAA Lights (pics)

Finally got my light bar installed so thought I would show it off. I think it turned out good. I didn't want to clutter up the front end, but also wanted something to break up the all the chrome up front (not to mention wanting to light up the night when offroading). What do you think?

The looks pretty good, and sleek!!! I have another question for you though, what's the black box in the center of your bumper between the tow hooks?

Thanks guys. Here's the details:

Smittybilt Light Bar with PIAA 6-inch 520 ATP Dual Beam Xtreme White All-Terrain Offroad Lights and PIAA 5-inch 540 Xtreme White Driving Lights.

stvsherrod: the lightbar bolts through the front bumper. If you have the holes for the front license plate mount, you just have to drill out the square hole with a 1/2-inch bit (that is all I had to do). If you don't, you have to drill new holes through the bumper but it will fit the Sport.

Thanks! Good eyes too. That is the front radar diffuser as part of my K40 Calibre dual remote radar detection and duffsion system.

Glad you like it! I was going to powder coat it, but with the black PIAA housings, black tow hooks, and black trim here and there I thought it looked fine and gave me the break on the chrome.

Thanks bigred! Yeah. I used the 520s on my last two 4x4s and they work great!

Hey c0mfort....yes, that's the new Smittybilt. See my post above as it is really simple to bolt (if you don't mind drilling through your front bumper).

that is nice, although it offers no protection to the lights.. I still may buy one!
