Evanphi, thanks for posting this. I replicated your build on my car. I love how it looks and the fog lights definitely helps driving at night.

It looks like the weight of the lights are pulling my bumper down. I noticed a larger gap between my hood and the grille. Are you experiencing this? I'm wondering if I need to remove the light bar mount that attaches to the bumper only and mount something to the frame or impact bar. Any thoughts or advice?

You could always use longer self-tapping bolts that'll mount more directly into the steel bumper behind the plastic. It is right behind the lic plate.

130 watt bulbs

I ran these on a f350 with 130 watt bulbs, huge improvement over the 55 watt standard bulbs. The bulbs don’t have a long life but it was worth replacing the bulbs regularly.
100 watt bulbs still gave a good bright light and lasted much longer.
Add s set of the Hella spots with 130 watt bulbs and it was like daylight.
You do have to slightly modify the off road only 130 or 100 wat bulbs to fit. There’s s small metal tab that you cut off with tin snips.
3 spots and 2 fogs would be perfect.
