Hell ya Jim. That thing is sick. People are going to be all screwed up when they see the bars out the rear window. That is exactly what I want in my truck. It just sucks that out here you need one as soon as yo go 11.5's.

if people ask about the bars Id tell em its for 4 wheeling so you dont get crushed when doing monster rock crawling

Drag racing whats that?

Id paint the bars to match whatever color is behind them blue for the bed area, black for the rear window should make em more inconspicuos
I bet the cops just look for **** like that

Put some offroad lights on the rear tubes and call it a day.

You could always modify it to look like a ladder rack. A sleeper work truck, now that'd be freakin' hilarious to see.

Are those swing outs? It doesn't look as though they'll clear the back pillar. Maybe its just the angle.

It doesn't look as hevy as I thought it would, but there is a few good chunks of metal under the cab. I agree with 02, paint it blue.

So obviuosly the window is cut for the bars. Is it going to be sealed around the bars or open or what? I have no idea. Looks intimadating.
