I'm not sure what pengwin's thinking is, but here's how I look at it.
Lift kits, bigger tires, sliders, wheel spacers, racks like the Gobi Stealth or the Perkins Performance rack, and tight bumpers like the ShrockWorks without the extra hoops, all expand the profile of the truck, but don't substantially change it - they just make it beefier. Adding lights that stick out beyond the profile clutters up the look.
I've even thought that if I ever ordered one of the above-mentioned racks, that I would ask for the up-raised portion of the top bar in front to be eliminated - just keep a straight bend - and go with low-profile rectangular/oval lights across the front so as to kind of keep the profile intact.

Just took a look at that thread, and the associated grill thread. Very nice!
