i had a free moment to fart around so i decided id put my LED's in and see how they look. im very happy!

im going to start tomorrow morning on putting these on. i have to drill for the rubicon sliders which should be fun and all the stuff on the inner fender. if i get to it early should be able to have it knocked out by dinner with plenty of breaks.

im really interested to know what these will do to my MPG if anything at all, in theory it seems like these would get way better drag coefficient than the stock ones just because its not forcing the air to go another direction and its just piping it down and out.

then again they're about 15 lbs heavier than stock too.

Its trapping air rather than letting it flow over. Im going to say you wont see any difference, if anything worse.

x2
the air will be caught in the fenderwell instead of pushing it up over the fenders.

i didnt take very many pics because the instalation process is incredibly straight foward, the only complications i had were the battery tray, but everything went smoothly. the only thing i have left is changing the relay for the LED's




some of the holes i had to drill


one down


nearly finished


voila!
