I'm not a tube door guy but I dig the vibe, need you some tube fenders and some aussie tube corners to complete the look.

Honestly, I'm not either, but I have a couple of little ones so its a fair compromise. And its growing on me.

Have the police messed with you about no front plate. I had my Arcus Bumper on for a few weeks waiting on my front plate holder to show up and no plate. Got pulled over and warned about not having front plate.

No but I know I'm pushing my luck. it seems they wont get you for that alone unless you catch them on a bad day. But get dinged for anything else and you know thats going on the ticket as well.

I have the mounting bracket and had it up for a while, but it was getting in the way on the winch (or the lights wouldn't mount properly, I cant remember which). Ill tackle it soon enough.

So at night are they dark (no light) and light up when breaking?

that's correct. I'm not sure if you could have them work both ways (on then get brighter with breaks) but it would be interesting if you can.

if you find a work around, you let me know.

I was on Tiki Island the police there can be picky when they want to be. Didn't get ticket just warning. I bought the Cascadia Holder and am really liking it. I didn't go with Bull Bar so I mounted my lights in the spot where the bull bar goes.

I used to drive from San Antonio to Houston a few times a week on business. At that time, I was driving a nice Porsche Cayenne. I REFUSED to mess it up with a front plate. I estimate I was pulled over at least a dozen times for no front plate by the Highway Patrol and local LE.

I always just got a verbal warning and told them I did not want to mess up the front of my car. I eventually kept a loose plate on the front dash just to avoid any more headaches.

Maybe the fact I was always in at least a shirt and tie (and pants of course) and am 50+ helped me from getting a ticket. Of course, they still walked around the vehicle and shined lights into the back to make sure I was not the world's most undercover fentanyl trafficker.

Sorry brother, I'm in Houston, but find solace in knowing there is more then one.

Dang than you do have a twin riding around the DFW Area. Now that I look closer I think they had a different set of rims ?. Either way both of yall have some beautiful rigs ?

Any update with the sport bars? Debating to order this but would like to hear some long term reviews if any.

Not sure if you already pulled the trigger or not as I haven't been on in a while but... the chase rack/sports bar (whatever you want to consider it) is amazing and in my opinion still makes the Gladiator stand out. I absolutely love it. it shows absolutely no signs of rusting or aging. looks as new as the day I put it on.

I am however about to perform some much-needed cosmetic surgery on it which may impair its integrity. I need to run the wires through the tubing that would require drilling some discrete holes into it which will open it up to the elements.

I guess Ill update here once again after its done.
