I'm wanting to dress up the front end to make it more aggressive looking. This will be on my 6+3. I really love the looks of additional lights up front. I can't decide between a bull bar with lights or an n-fab prerunner. The prerunner is below with pics of my truck underneath it. I would appreciate everyone's thoughts/inputs/opinions. Thanks!

Personally I like light bars better than bull bars. Just make sure to check to see if what you buy works with body lifts.

I'd go with the n-fab. It drills directly to the bumper with 4 1/2" bolts.

I personally think your truck is clean and I wouldn't add the 'bulkiness' of a light bar.

Have you considered some lights behind the grille? Some Hella black magic lights would flow nicely with your black accents on your truck.

I would also consider a GM tow hook swap for a more factory look. I would also paint the nerf bars and fix the exhaust so it didn't hang so low after the body lift.

Now again, that is my opinion.. BUT, if you were set on a bar for lights I would suggest a bar from Randy Ellis Design.

I agree with everything Mickey just said. And that would also be my light bar of choice.

Or even go with the Street N-Fab bar like I have,

And its cheaper than the RED Street bar, and it mounts to the bumper, not the frame horns

Thanks for the input. Those are slightly older pics. The Step bars were old ones I threw on there. They have been replaced. The exhaust is also fixed. I will look into the lights behind the grille. They do look good!

Great pics! And hot looking truck. What size lights are those? I'm assuming there is no size limitation is that correct? Lastly did you drill into the bumper?

Thanks again

Also that's a great looking light-bar. I like that they are slightly higher up on the grille. I'll have to search around to see if anyone carries them.
