This is the first time I've looked at your build thread Benedict. I'll have to say, a phenomenal job! Kiwi's blazer is also a inspiration to me... and you've added to it. I REALLY like the tire rack on the back.
Can I ask you why you opted to go with the KC lights instead of the rectangular ones? I dug the blueish hint the sqaure ones had. Were they made by anyone of note?
Also what roof rack is that? I wanted to get one but I don't like the looks of the Surco's, and knock off brands look poorly made. The Surco safari's look a little too tall for my taste... but then again most racks look to be about 4-5". I poked around the interwebs and couldn't find that style your rockin.

the blue rectangular lights weren't very bright. I bought the round lights for the bull bar and realized how bright they were and I wanted those. Both round and rectangular lights are made by the "blazer" company and can be found at advance autos. I have no idea what kind of roof rack it is because I bought it off of someone who had it on their bravada. I've never seen one quite like mine.

I notice you took off the Air Deflector to install the bull bars. How did that effect your running temp, if it did at all?

The roof basket is a Rage Black Widow turned around backwards. Normally the sloped end goes in the front.

Nice setup!!

I took the front valence off before I got the bull bar. and I'm pretty sure the bull bar would still fit if it was there. I haven't noticed any difference in temp thou. and yea I know the basket is backwards... it was backwards on the bravada too and the light mounts and everything I think it kind of looks good backwards the slope that is the front flows with the rear glass
