What yall think
So I ordered the wrong light bar for my brothers f150 for christmas, it's an e150,250,350 ford van light bar. I mixed up the part numbers on accident and got stuck with it cause it's a special order item and I'm not about to throw away 250 bucks so what y'all think???
I have a few things left to do with it like long bolts to suck in the little bars and stuff to the bumper . Either way I'm happy with it I fine it looks good just wanting to here y'all opinions about what y'all think. It sticks out on each side the stock bumper about an inch.
Thank
Breyn

That will look great, make it fit and work for you. Perhaps some reenforcement behind the stock bumper and you will have a super functional front.

Definitely looks cool but doesn't seem very functional on the stock bumper. But if you reinforce it like you say you will then should be good.

Thanks for all y'all input. It's giving me more things i can do with it, its a baja style light bar it's functions are for a light bar. I don't wanna push pull are anything with it it's basicly to mount lights and give it a baja look, but as y'all say I can always ditch the stock bumper and build a really nice looking tube bumper around it.
