LED light bar in the front valence?

[seven9st surfer]

So I just recently mounted some LED work lights under my rear bumper for additional reverse light. I'm pretty impressed with them, and now I'm thinking about adding some LED bars to the front. I want to replace the (useless) fogs, but then I got to thinking maybe I could add a legit light bar to the front. I measured the gap in the front of the valence, the one between the tow hooks. It's about 21" x 1 5/8". I think a 20" light bar might fit, but it might be tight vertically. I want to keep it looking as clean and OEM as possible. Has anyone else mounted one here, and want to put up some pics?

The only problem with mounting there is you'll have to rig up some brackets, cause there is nothing there to bolt to. Also that panel is curved.

Yeah, I'm sure I can make some kind of bracket out of band aluminium or something. And they make curved bars as short as 20".

I think a curved 20" would look good. And then get 2 6" bars for the fog holes.

I thought about doing a 30" behind the grill, but I can't see myself needing more than my quad retrofit.

Regular 20"

That's awesome. I was wondering if the double row bars would fit. I was looking at a single row 21". How'd you mount yours?

Mine is a 21" also, There is two bumper bolts underneath and are about 20" apart center of valance just mounted some L brackets off them and tightened everything down, very solid

Nice Mitchell. I had thought about doing one behind the grille, but then relized it would be a pain to clean. Dig the valance location.

Thanks, yeah currently the valance is black again (terrible color match before) and the led bar went on the f350 but I sold the truck with the light bar so i am ordering another one for the yukon but not sure what one, one is a amber/ white double row, and the other is a single row rigid reflector copy
