    can anybody whos done this mod please humor me a little here... all the other bars were easy to do except for the front, it looks terrible because i had to screw it to the plastic bottom of my bumper, and you can see the bar way too easily if your standing in front of the car.. problem is i couldnt think of a better place to put it.. :?:

    depends on how long the tube is
    I have a 30 inch tube and I mounted it under the grille sorta
    at the top of the bumper
    I can't get into my pics right now but when I can I will post

    The front i had to take out one off the headlight houseing to get it down in where i needed it because i have a 36"in then i took zip ties and tied them to the tranmission lines that run in front of the grill .the lines dont get hot so u dont have to worry about them melting. also u should get the leds rods there 3 times brighter and more user friendly .They come in longer tubes to 36" and 50"

    thanks a lot guys, well i already bought the non-LEDs but maybe on my next car lol... mrjaydeeone one last question... i think im gonna try mounting it the way you did, the only thing i want to know is if the bulb is visible when turned on from the front of the car, and since its on top of the bumper, how does it still shine on the ground? anyways thanks for your help guys
