custom light bar for the RS

Ray

The Northernah'
so heres the project of the day, it took me about 3 hours. I got some free 16 guage sheet metal from the Metal Fab class in school and took it to composites (working with carbon fiber, Kevlar, fiberglass etc.) and fabricated this, in my free time. All it was was some simple bending, painting and drilling. any questions just ask. id be willing to make them for who ever wants one.

eeek, a Tri-Clops.....you could actually disturb the harmony of the universe with that uneven lighting...better add a 4th eyeball or weird stuff might start happening.

ray drilled 2 holes in the front and just put the liscence plate screws through the bracket. HAHAA Yeah i think you should either remove the middle hella or add a 4th. Ray just drill into your bumper. It'll make them stay better. The bracket will bounce around when you drive. I am definitely going to get a pair once i get the cash. ahaha i like the i will make one if you want one comment. aahahaha

 
what did ya attach the light bar brackets to?
well i bolted the bottom brackets to the bottom of the front bumper which stiffened it up nicely. and the top bar is screwed into the license plate holes, it works fine and i checked the clearance on the bar and another hella is on the way

nice! that looks like what i did. went to tractor supply bought angle iron and flatstock and went at it.

i love a good diy project

 
I soooo need more lights on my OBS. Instead of winters, I think that's a good first upgrade.

This look awesome Ray, great job!

 
I think that WRXNate had a nice set of PIAA driving lights for up sale.....he might have already unloaded them though. You can get the hella 500 ralley lights that everyone else is running for $60 at walmart too.

I saw mentioned that two driving lights is the legal limit....impreza05 should know more about it, I'll ask.

Well there ya go

 
well what ill do is run the two outer lights on a separate switch that only gets power when the low beams are on. and another switch too light all four up even if the high beams are on for moose avoidance
