My custom light bar

These pictures have actually already been posted in another unrelated thread but I thought I'd post them in a thread of their own. First, a huge thanks to GRIM for listening to my design ideas and putting up with my minor changes. He's quite the metal sculptor. I've shown this bar before but it was months ago. It's now (finally) made its way back from powder coat and is finally mounted where it should be. Enjoy the shots. Thanks again, GRIM.

Looks good sir! And thought the pics are great, I'm sure it looks even better in person. Maybe at another meet sometime soon!

It was custom made by GRIM. I don't believe he is taking any other orders though.

Thanks, man. Yes, it's been a work in progress for better than six months, now. Anyway in response to other comments, GRIM never really was "taking orders" on these. We're friends and this is something that I asked him to build for me. After doing so, he contemplated the idea of building them on a mass level but knew that few would pay what he'd be asking based on the material used to fabricate it. Furthermore, he wasn't willing to sacrifice quality material to lower the price. The bar is about 95% 1/8" thick wall stainless steel tubing. The stuff ain't cheap. I was fortunate in that he happened to have some lying around his shop that was scratched all to hell. Knowing that I had intended to powdercoat it anyway, it really made no difference to me.
Thanks to everyone for the kind words. I'm sure there's someone who doesn't care much for it but so far, I have yet to see that.
