Topic: Pickup Trucks: Subject "Light-Bars / Roll-Bars"

They seem to make or break it for how well a truck looks sometimes.

Not happy with what Ive seen for the S10/S15

Top left is original pic.

Just using mspaint, nothin fancy hack edits.
Added a 3 bar hoop, lights on middle bar.

Only 2 would be regular hoop bars, one most forward would just be a gap filler hoop.

Couldn't really get the lines like I wanted on the down leg bars but id want em to come down behind the wheel humps. And have a slight bend part way back. [almost the side profile/outline of a offroad course truck]

Don't know if I want then to come out of the middle and angle out #1
or straight out #2 like typical. But I think #5 is more of what I got in mind, just to give it some style from the rear too. Over just two straight bars.

Though the compound curves could be tricky without a computer bending machine. [ Could make em in 3 pieces n slug em ]

Then I made it a single cab [which I have], then I added a spare tire[goofy], then I lowered it some. For that squatted Baja look.

I like the single cab squatted version with the tires filling the wheel wells.

Not quiet, he only has 2, I would have 3

Though they did put the 2nd one forward as a gap filler.
Which does help allot on the looks.
