I used to have five 200W lights on a rack above my CJ-7 when I owned it years ago, and it was the worse mistake I ever made. It will completely illuminate the hood of your truck, so much so that you won't even get any advantage out of using the lights. It was a huge annoyance actually. Big mistake!

Instead, consider a pre-runner type front bumper and put the lights on there, so that they're out in front of your truck and your truck stays dark but the trail is illuminated.

For some ideas, check out my gallery, as I was at the SEMA show last year and took pics.

Spoke to N-Fab about this a few weeks ago. They will have 2 types available in Aug. 1 as shown in the picture, 2- Repace the enite lower bumper. I'm game for the 1'st choice, as my vehicle is primary a street truck. (Pre-Runner Style I think is what it's called).

FWIW unless the lights/light bar/rack is smooth with the shape of the roof it will take away from your gas mileage.

I had a Tacoma with lights that I could flip up/down. I tested them up at 70mph for one tank (all highway) and down, same type of terrain and weather... same day. The 2 hella 500's and 2 hella rallye 4000's took the MPG down ~4MPG. The wind drag is considerable.
