Thanks for your thoughts. But in my defense it does look alot better in person. Pictures just make the lights look intense and the light output "bleed" over. I was worried it looked to much "boy racer". In person you can see each individual LED and not near as intense. The LED light bar however is very bright providing as much light output as headlights. Very useful as driving lights.

Wow, talk about overkill! How much of that is actually necessary?

Only the LED bar in the center is "necessary." Me ,just like many others, wanted a fog/driving light set up. This just made sense. No mods other than removing bumper and running the wirers. Yes all the other LEDs are not necessary.

You need one of these on the roof to make sure people can see you at night

Too each their own. I like lights, more for the cool factor than to see through fog. To some they may be overkill, to others they may be the perfect touch. The bottom line is different stroked for different folks.
