Default Bumper mounted lights

What kind of lights are u guys running on your aftermarket front bumpers? I was looking at some and they have all different ones: Driving, fog, long distance, etc. also 5" or 6"? And good brands that might be a little cheaper. Thanks

I'm running SlimLites, pair of fogs on the bumper and long range mounted on the windshield. Pretty inexpensive and throws plenty of light out, easy install too.

Yeah, those look cool. Is that the brand name? And what size is that?

I'm running the KC 6in. long range Slimlights also. My Rock hard stubby came with light mount tabs already welded on the grill guard.

My ~$100 budget light project - Hella 700FF's with 35W 3000K HID's. I had the Lightforce 240 Blitz with retro-fit HID's on my previous rig and the 700's + HID perform admirably at a third of the price. But these should only be used offroad or backroad due to the lack of beam pattern. These light up EVERYTHING for 100yds ahead, above and to the sides!

Nice! I also really like the ones up by the windshield. Are they the same, or a different beam?
