x2 just drill holes in the stock bumper to mount your lights free is better than paying $100 or more for a little bar that mounts to the bumper

I used the pre-drilled factory holes for my outer pair of lights and just drilled two more evenly spaced holes for the inner pair. Considering the lights were about 17 bucks a pair and came with all the neccesary wiring, the whole project was like $35.00. Works great too, plus I'm not gonna freak out if I smash one up on the trail!

I WAS going to start fabbing the bumper-light bar but everyone wanted the A-pillar lights...

Funny, so far Clay and I are the only ones with em...
Go figure.

I too wanted a light bar for the front bumper, and really liked the Zoneworks one. Oh well. I have some scrap laying around that I have thought about using, though it wont looks are pretty.

I believe the OP was referring to a bumper-mount.
All I see there is roof-mount.
