Recently picked up a 13 Raptor. Came with a Rigid light bar that's mounted in behind the grille with a custom set of brackets and sits between the headlights. Seems like a really good spot for it as it's not obnoxious and won't get hit by anything. I'm debating getting a stock bumper and getting the fog lights that match it though to get some amber lighting down low. Thoughts?

@Cody Templeton

The Rigid behind the grille kit is definitely a great setup. While the grille does block a bit of light, it's nice to know your expensive light bar is tucked away from thieves. Rigid does make numerous cube lights that fit in the bumper openings, some of which are amber. They also make an amber and white SAE lights (SAE lights are approved for on road use).

For the stock front bumpers, we've got a cool fog light mounting kit. Completely fills the bumper openings for that OEM fit and finish all while holding two pairs of cube lights.

Let us know if we can get you setup with some lights or mounts. Always happy to discuss options.

Baja Designs makes a killer fog kit for the Raptors. Available here: http://www.4x4truckleds.com/baja-designs-ford-raptor-2010-2014-fog-pocket-mount-kit/

We let you pick/choose which lights to go with. So you could do a set in clear and a set in amber.

Baja Designs also makes a nice 20" Light Bar kit for your 2013 as well: http://www.4x4truckleds.com/baja-designs-ford-raptor-2010-2014-20-led-bar-mounting-kit/

It sits in the lower bumper opening

So going back to a factory bumper gives you quite a few options to keep lighting mounted.

Finally, if you want to go all out... they also make a 2nd bumper light bar kit that mounts up a 40" bar now: http://www.4x4truckleds.com/baja-designs-ford-raptor-2010-2014-onx6-40-led-light-bar-kit/

When you are ready to pull the trigger or want to go over some options/pricing. Let me know.

Thanks for the options guys! Looks like I'll just keep the Rigid bar behind the grill that's already there as it's very nicely mounted with some custom brackets. As far as the light bar in the middle of the bumper opening I'll be putting a winch plate in there, so that won't work. I do believe I'll go with that fog lamp setup though to fill the bumper openings on the sides. Just need to find a stock bumper and brackets! :)

M&R lighting has a nice setup for the stock bumper and is a lot cheaper https://mandronline.com/ Ive had mine for about 9 yrs. and still works great!

Awesome! Not sure if you already have a winch mount, but SDHQ makes a nice one for the 1st Gen. If you need a mount or winch, let us know. Always happy to help.

There's typically a stock bumper to be had fairly easily. Check the used parts section here or craigslist. When you're ready for fog lights let us know. We'll get you taken care of!

Yea, I was looking at SDHQ for the winch plate! I figured I'd use that winch plate and maybe the Apex 12K winch with a synthetic line. Just need to find a stock bumper. Most of the off road steel bumpers I've seen don't tickle my fancy much. I've got an ADD one on there now that came with it and it's great for off road, but isn't much for the looks department and I can't put a winch on it.

Good to see my review pics being put to use. Great shopping experience with with Adam and 4x4TruckLEDs.com. i just added the amber caps to a set of mine. Nothing beats being able to throw them on when needed if your not into the amber look full time....
