    Imagine the 50"! The $1500 price tag is a little much though. I seriously considered one on my Jeep, but after seeing a 50" in the woods at night, they just don't seem to have the range I was after. So I went with KC Pro-Sport HID's (8"ers) with the 2 spot beams, and 2 driving beams I have on right now, I can shoot out to 500 yards at night. :)

    I've seen it melt the paint off everything when those lights are on. I think I am still slightly blinded from that at the 2013 MOTD.

    What radiator is that?

    Is it a direct replacement for the OEM?

    I liked the green... Digi-cam would look better in a black white red IMO.

    How are you liking that Rigid light bar? Was thinking on using Rigid Dually's in place of my standard fog's next time around... Just because they are bright as... Well. :)

    That Rigid light bar is INSANE!

    He turned it on at the Dragon one night and holy crap did it light up the night.

    Urban Digital Camo... That's pretty bad ass. The light bar is insane and works well with the camo.
    Even the fender flares fit the entire design. Very well done. Now tweak the ecu so you can use your exhaust as a flamethrower.

    Also, is that a Rigid light bar or a generic one off ebay? if it is just off of ebay, how do you like it? If it is a Rigid, kudos to you for shellin' out the cash to light up the whole Dragon :) :Thumbsup:

    Just was wondering, since the ebay ones are actually affordable...
