How did you attach it to the aluminum bumper box? Right angle drill?

Nice work! I have two SG5s, so feel free to make a template off one of them if you want. Just PM me and we can work out a time. I also have a good friend with an SF (01) that stops over quite a bit.

THIS IS AS OF NOW JUST TO GAUGE INTEREST. IF I DO GET THE GO AHEAD FROM THE SITE OWNER TO SELL THESE, THEN I WILL START TO MAKE AND DISTRIBUTE THE BAR.

OK, if anyone is iterested in having one made for them...

I do need to find someone local with a SG9 Sports bumper so that I don't leave anyone out. Chris (Sea-Scooby), if you know anyone... you know most of the locals. After these are made and I post pictures of finished products and will then except PM's for purchase.

Im going to meet up with Chris HOPEFULY within next week to get measurments for the SG5 and the SF.

If you want one made for more than two lights, let me know. I can do two on top and two on bottom, four across... let me know also if you know what lights, and I can find size specs online.

ALSO, I would like to find a welder that has experience with aluminum so that I could make a very, very nice finished product. IF this does go through, I would obviously have to raise the price... for now, the above is what I'm offering.

Ill set a shipped price for the two-light bar at $90 anywhere in the country via USPS and would accept Paypal or USPS MO. Locals who let me get the mockups get their's for price of materials.

Like I said, just drop me a line.

Zack

After you get your FMIC, If you're still interested let me know and we can go off of specific pics and I can get one made for you. Same price as anyone else.

Nice light bar!!!

I'm interested if the aluminum angle can be extended to accommodate two more lights. I want to mount 4 Hella 500s (2 driving, 2 fog). I have an '07 X, so it'd be identical to yours! :) I can cruise up there on a weekend.
