Threw a new Tyger stubby bumper on the ole Mojavster today. Installing the fog lights was a bit of a pain but my wife’s tiny hands came in… handy…

Wanted to see what the Mojave would look like with a powder coated front skid. Spray painted a piece of cardboard and taped it on. It stayed in place for a picture and then fell off. But I like it and am waiting on a shop to call me back with a price.
I did see somewhere on this forum that someone did it but I couldn’t find it. Damn the search function!

A lot going on the last few days, but the highlight for me was finishing up the lights :

- Changed all the halogens out to LED bulbs. Beamtech and Alla. - $100
- Added the Oracle Pre Runner lights to the grill - $40
- Installed Harbor Freight Roadshock Edge 5400 Lumen - 4 LED Spot/Floods to A Pillars - $210
- Today added - Harbor Freight Roadshock Edge 7500 Lumen - 6 LED Spot/Floods to the Bumper Bar - $320

- Hooked it all up with a VoSwitch JL800 and custom wired it up myself. $270 + $70 for wire.

Extremely happy with how it all turned out. There were a couple gotchas that I worked around for both mounting and wiring, but the end result was totally worth it for me. The lights and switching turned out top notch IMO, and the cost was extremely reasonable for what I ended up with. Around $1k took the stock halogen gladiator from a weakly barely drivable turd to a freaking BEAST. With the three low/flood and high/spot combos - visibility is beyond what I expected, and the side visibility with the RoadShock Edge's is fantastic.

My wife says it's too over the top, but secretly, I think she loves it. LOL

Running Lights

Full Blast

VoSwitch A Pillar Controller

Oh...almost forgot the Baja Designs Squadron Sport flood/spot combo that Summit put into the bumper to replace the halogen fogs when I had the bumper put on. 3162 Lumens, and they are awesome too. I guess that puts me up over the $1k mark by a couple hundred though..... LOL
