I'm interested in this answer before I decide. Hopefully there is enough room behind for 4 tabs even spaced

What kind of pics are you specifically looking for? There isn't a lot to show because it's stealthy and behind the grill. I tried taking pics of the mounts in the truck but it's hard.

Would it be hard to modify the brackets to just come straight out instead of coming out and up. I had some lights mounted on the front a while back but there was a lot of vibration so i removed them. That was just because of the cheap way i had made the brackets. You can see what i am talking about in post #10

This can be done with a modified version of my Style D. I can make it so the tube mounts don't go up, just straight out. If I do it this way there will be almost no vibration. I usually charge an extra $20 for custom versions as I need to do new CAD work. Let me know what you think!

Will let you know. Still waiting to hear back about a front bumper. If it doesn't go through i will probably go this route. Thanks.

Are these difficult to mount, do they come with or require instructions? I assume you're keeping those details somewhat secret so nobody copies your product...
I'm not a fan of the straight bar, so i'm considering making my own bent bar but use your tabs. Plus I'm more than capable of welding that bar in place to offset the extra $60.
So... How much for the bar style, but without the bar?

I think you have it right, same as all plate price. I will include instructions with purchase, but they bolt on very simple. Remove the 4 main bumper nuts on each side, slide on brackets, put the nuts back on. Then you slide the light bar on, tighten 4 included bolts on each side. Honestly, no secrets here. I make the best light bars because I use better methods and I don't skimp on material. Anyone can easily figure out what I do if they really want to.
The extra $60 is for more than just welding a tube. It's extra material, more fab time, and the thing most miss; extra shipping material. I have to order special boxes in bulk to ship them in vs. just cutting up some random boxes to make it kinda fit.
If you want me to do bent tubes, or just want plates I can do either, just shoot me a PM.

Excellent answer. It looks like a very well engineered product. I guess I missed that the price included shipping. I guess I should spend more time reading and less time typing lol...
I'm capable and honestly a fan of welding/ fabricating, so I think buying your plate kit and finishing it my own way will best meet my needs. I have no issue paying for the R&D and quality of parts your sending. I see the value and i'm glad you've taken the time to build this for us.
When do you expect to start shipping? (Probably something else you've mentioned that I didn't read...)

Thanks!
Price does NOT include shipping, the tube version just needs an odd shaped box you can't go buy at a normal store... So I have to buy them from a special box place. I tried shipping these in boxes I cut to fit and had a lot of problems with stuff moving, hardware falling out, etc. I learned a lot from when I made these for Tacomas... Takes a lot more than just knowing how to fab haha. I learned a lot of R&D goes into packaging and shipping too... It's a super pain in the but haha.
So the list goes up the beginning of every month, two weeks for sign ups. Then I order all material, fab, and have them sent out hopefully by the last day of the month. I need to make additional welding fixtures this first time around so it's gunna be a challenge for me...
PM your PayPal email and your final choice and I can send you an invoice for the $50 deposit (needed to order laser cutting$. Let me know any other questions, happy to answer!
