grille guard / light bar

I laugh every time I see a lowered truck with a Grill Guard!!! It's throwing crap on just because you can. It's not a 4x4, and your not going off roading in that thing. You should have enough light with the truck, if not your going blind and maybe shouldn't be driving in the dark. I'm also not sure what the law is on accessory lighting. It's one thing adding FOG lights as they're below the bumper normally, but adding more light blinding other drivers is another. Off-Road use is another story, but again your not driving a 4x4, and a lowered trucking is not going to be doing much of that.

I would try instead to use one of the brighter whiter light bulbs. For example:

PIAA Headlight & Fog Light Bulbs Superior Lighting - As Easy As Changing A Bulb!

a.. 1 Year Warranty b.. Uses less amps than standard upgrade bulbs c.. DOT Approved & Legal in all states. Upgrade your headlight bulbs. PIAA Platinum bulbs combine Super White Technology with a high power XTRA Halogen Bulb for increased performance. This allows the bulb to emit a beam of light that is whiter and brighter than standard bulbs of the same style while using less amperage. PIAA Super White bulbs approach the brightness and intensity of High Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps at a fraction of the cost. These bulbs are tested and certified to comply with SAE certification for white color. D.O.T. Approved.

50 state legal. The crystal blue light is similar to what is seen on today's expensive luxury cars.

Check out someplace like

and check out the different lights. Do you really want to trash up your truck?

Also you lowered your truck, are your Headlights adjusted correctly? Lowering your truck changes how the headlights are position, and you may not be getting all of your trucks light output where you need it.

Check out the Piaa air dam.

Then add some driving lights. You can add two sets of lights.

Piaa Air Dam 30520 For large outboard openings use PIAA 80 Pro XT, 520, or 40 Round.

For small inboard openings use PIAA 510, 910, 959 or 912.

I agree with you on the grill guard. In the area I'm in those four legged rats are a real pain in the ass. I just had to replace the header, lights,grill and drivers headlight door on my FILs Ford because of one jumping into the road. He was lucky I can get the parts cheap. The radiator and AC was saved by the center grill guard he has on it. I'm looking at welding on a set of side rails real soon, to protect the lights better. His new Jeep will soon have a Smittybilt unit on it for the same reason.

For actual protection look at Westin, Smittybilt or Manik. Make sure it is frame mounted and has HEAVY steel tubes. I also recommend a hunk of expanded metal bolted between the uprights to stop the head/hooves from getting to the radiator.

that's cool but my truck has been lowered and I'm afraid that with winter driving in the snow those would just end up behind me on the highway some cold blowing night.

thanx tho
