GF got me PIAA's 4 XMAS - Custom light bar & mount pics

Yet again my girlfriend gets me an awesome present. Set of PIAA series 540 extreme white driving lights. Was trying to figure out how to mount them and decided to just give it a shot at fabbing up a light bar. Turned out really well for me. What do you guys think. Will have more photos of fabbing proccess later.. missing alot of steps in these pics. Bumper is also back on now..just didnt get any pics of it

I hope those brackets are strong enough and aren't too flimsy that they flap around or vibrate alot as you're driving with the weight of the lights on them, cuz the light spread during that is going to annoy the **** out of you!
