This is what I’ve got so far

Looks like a LED bar would be better than two floating lights. That might lend more stability

kjohnster, how long is the bar? It looks like a longer span than the LR4

TheWidup, yes that would essentially give it a front brace. I love the round light look though, but may try the bar when I get my first rock strike on the light. It’ll be a good excuse to try something different.

@JARentDTOM - I’m not too sure. My guess is about 32 inches. Got a bit further along and mocked it with the lights. I’m stoked with the results

That looks great. Good weekend project. Now, here’s what you will do for at least the next week...you’ll find yourself parking the direction facing the direction you’ll be returning from, just to admire your work. Ha!

I had been frustrated looking for a decent solution for grille mounting the auxiliary lights so I ended up drawing up part and having metal shop I work with create a couple brackets for me. I had it laser cut in 12 ga. Steel and powder coated black. It has worked out great for me mounting my Hella 500 driving lights. I have a couple extra brackets and could make more if people were interested in them.

That looks good.

What color are your wheels? Looks like the side air vents are painted to match? And I'm assuming that's the Powerful UK front grill?

It's all looking really good.

What color are your wheels?

That wheel color is known as Brake Dust Gray. j/k but I might be right. I had those rims on my last LR4 and loved them when clean but they were a ***** to scrub with all the nooks and crannies.

I have those wheels on mine and they look more brown than that when covered in brake dust.
