Custom Lighted Bumper

LMC Has the Custom Chrome Bumper Lighted in their magzine. My question is does anyone have one on their truck or has anoyone made one.. I'm thinking about just taking my current bumber and making holes in it and wire lights in it.. Would it be a good idea??

Anyone have pics of this bumper on a truck. I really like it...

Ahh dang those are sweet, I think Ive seen the first blazer in pics before and never noticed. I miss the little things. How did you mount the lights? And do they need a seal or no?

Re: Custom Lighted Bumper

I fabed custom brackets and welded them to the back side of the bumper. I should have done them the same way as my 03 and actually frenched in the lights instead of just cutting out holes, although I used that door edge trim around the holes so it has a finished look.

Here is the 03 bumper in process, but it's the same process to french them in:

Re: Custom Lighted Bumper

I like how the 03 looks like the lights were always there. Good work
