Default Lighting Options When Running A Stubby Bumper

Full and even some mid-width bumpers give you a lot of room for light mounting and even have integrated options. What are people doing for extra lighting when running a stubby bumper? I would love to see some pics if you have 'em.

The Shrockworks stubby has light tabs. This is the only photo I have right now showing the lights not the best, I'll get a better head-on photo tomorrow.




SDMF thinks I should leave my grill off because it makes my jeep look mean. Whadya think?

I also have the Schrockworks front stubby. I saved my stock fogs. It's probably just unrealistic wishful thinking, but does anyone know if there is a case that can be ordered that will hold the stock light and mount to the Schrock? It would sure be nice to have an inexpensive plug & play solution -- I'd rather not mess with wiring and all.

Shown here is the stock bulb (all its wiring is still intact) sitting next to the Schrock provided tab.

Anyone done any lighting with the Expedition One Jeep JK basic DX™ Winch Bumper? Does not look like there is much room there if any.

Poison Spyder makes something so you can hook up lights onto your roller fairlead from a winch. This would work for a stubby.
