Lighting? Everything is Aurora up front, less the little individual lamps that I got off of Amazon for the daytime running lights.
The front marker lights I upgraded to V-Leds Triton switchback lamps in clear marker, amber turn. They're freakin' bright by themselves, so much that you need to hook up a dimmer wire to your lowbeams so they don't blind everyone around town http://www.vleds.com/v3-triton/bulb-system/switchback/v3-wa-5k.html

Old bumper was sold on the spot as soon as I mentioned it. Going to a good home after it gets recoated in black tex powdercoat.

You can love the bumper, Just don't leave stains on it :luv:


I just now really have to look at a good quality headlight upgrade, as it's the only thing left not LED now.

Oh, 40" curved light bar for the roof next. And some perimeter lighting on the roof rack.

So far, the JW Speaker 8630 and 8700 (Evolution 2 versions) are the state of the art in LED headlights. They beat out the other LED headlights pretty handily. We ran a bunch of photometric tests, and, they're the one's to beat.

The lights are essentially sealed beam-like in construction...so, all you'd be doing is fabbing a way to mount/aim them. The 8630 work with CANBUS w/o an adapter, and are smaller in diameter. The 8700 are 7", and need an adapter. (To avoid PMW flicker in 2005+ X's)

His bumper definitely inspired mine. I'm pretty sure he could quit his day job and make those front bumpers and make more $$ lol. Beautiful job man!
