They're made by Pilot Automotive. I've got the same pair and when aimed right they're pretty nice. I swapped out the crummy 55w bulbs for some 100w ones and they're sweet.
KTMRider: Nice work on the interior and the exterior bedlining. I really like the look of the bedlined flairs. Keep up the attention to detail

I like your build, it came out real clean so far. If you are at 5" of lift, do you have a SYE or TC drop? How is it riding, any vibrations?
I am going to order a 3" lift with full leafs, and I'm wondering if I can add the 2" budget boost later on to get to 5", but I'm worried about vibes and shaft angles..

See what happens when you try to show the Jeep some love... she breaks on ya... Looking good... I would have just left the carpet out of the interior of the Jeep since you did bedline underneath it... I would also go ahead and hit your front bumper up if you had any left over, or pick up a small quart can that you can use for touch ups as well, or even maybe hit your roof rack up with what is left after hitting up the front bumper... but that is just me... Your Jeep is looking good, and you are doing way better off on your HS budget build than I am on my USAF pay building mine up... I'll get there eventually... Sucks to hear about your ant. being stolen... can you possibly throw up a pic of your ant. mount though?? Trying to get some ideas for how I want to build one for mine... Again looks good!! Also have you had any sort of driveline vibrations since you installed the budget lift?? Are you planning on doing a SYE install anytime soon due to the added height??

I have recently purchased some rock sliders (coming in the mail soon) and am in the works of purchaseing a front bumper which is why i never wasted the money on bedlining the stock one. Here are a few pics from recent stuff. I went to assoteague and greenridge. Check em out!
Some wild horses
I forgot the camera at home for green ridge but here is the aftermath

Hey yall! Got some more parts in that need to go on. Rock sliders came in 2 days ago, extended brake lines yesterday and bumper will be in today! The RockSliders are from JCR and extended brake lines are from Quadatec(gift from girlfriend.) I painted the rock sliders and plan on a bed lining coat. Just need to have the bumper so i can budget bedliner.
My brake lines are a pain to replace. Does anybody have any tips on replaceing them? Or just keep soaking with pb blaster and hope it makes it loose enough to work with.
