I have the steel front bumper and the Mopar hoop. The previous owner installed a small light bar and some giant annoying spot lights (since removed for better air flow). The light bar is more than adequate for my needs and lights up the trail really well, wiring is into the factory Aux switch.

The lights are Vision-X and I don't have any complaints for the most part, but their steel mounting brackets are crap and will rust. I'm going to have to pull the ones off the hood at some point and get them powder coated. No issues with the aluminum mounts on the light bar.

4300 lumens. And low profile. But maybe Benny can get you a discount.
The 30" DD bar is over 11,000 lumens at almost half the price.

Baja Designs 30" bar is over 30,000 lumens at a similar price.

I don't see how 4,300 lumens is remotely competitive. It's just a Mopar cash grab.

Yes. Anything MOPAR is going to be additional costs. I like that light as it is very low profile although very expensive.
My problem is I think of adding lights as adding theft risk.
