Default home made light bar?

I'm just wondering on if this will make my truck goofy looking. I would like more light but don't have a grill guard so the only other place to put them is on top. I have 1994 s-10 blazer first generation and i was wondering if i put four of these

on top do you think it will look kinda goofy?

i looked at light bars and I cannot afford them[&o]

Won't look goofy IMO, but how are you going to mount them?

psh look goofy??? no way they fit the first gen perfectly. i think round lights on a first gen r goofy. i was lookin at some rectangular lights for my first gen. there was a guy on here (dont rem who) who mounted his lights to the cross bar on the roof rack and slide it all the way forward

That's why I put an extra roof rail to the front mounting of the roof rack.It moves the lights up another foot nearer the front. I'll be doing the wiring this weekend & will post pics with them working.
