I have had Rigid and Baja Design, Baja is far the best and if you are buying a 80k truck you should spend the little extra money and get the best. It will totally be worth it in the long run.

Wow, that looks good! Are you running 3 Onx6 hi-powers in the front bumper? Dang that must bright.

I went with all Rigid's on my Gen1 Raptor and had paint issues with all the cubes (including my flush mounts) after about a year/year and half. The powder coating bubbled and/or pealed off. I'm going to go with Baja's for my my Gen2, hopefully the powder coating is better.

If you contact rigid they have lifetime warranty. I bought a used 40 inch e series bar here on the forum. When i got it was pretty beat up(which was never mentioned in the ad), the finish peeling off, moisture in one of the corners. I sent pics to Rigid, got the work order authorization, paid one way to ship and 4 weeks later i got my light back in brand new condition. Just saying..

I was told it was a 2 year warranty on paint/powder, which I took them up on for one set of my cubes. But after a year, they started bubbling again... I also had issues with hardware rusting, again they sent me new stuff, but it was still a pain. In the end I just want something that will last a New England winter without pealing or bubbling, which is why I'm hoping the Baja's will hold up better. My buddy has them on his Gen1 and so far so good.

ebay and amazon have all these same sized lighting you are looking at for around 5-15% of the cost of these high dollar lights.

maybe they arent as bright, but im not spending ******* 600$ on two pods...

for example, here is a 25in bar i got from ebay about 3-4 years ago now. still works like a dream, for 70$
