I got mine from Cervinis and love how it looks.

The Cervini's is the best plastic bar I've seen. They all go for about $500?

I have the CDC that I installed myself. Very enjoyable install, very easy. I have the brake light in mine as well. Some folks will tell you that you need to buy a extra part to wire it in, but dont believe the hype. I called CDC when I installed mine and the kits have been updated with a different instruction manual where it now wires right into the truck on the passenger side without any extra parts.

The entire install took about 2 hours. I paid around 400 for the light bar, but I also installed the wind blocker glass that mounts into it, and keeps your girlfriends hair out of her face, that took another 30 minutes to install, and easily removes if i have back seat passengers. Glass was around 100 bucks.

Hope this helps.

Scrunchie and ford racing hat here ($20.00). I think the Cervinis bar flows the best plus it goes with their tonneu but I don't think I could ever justify the cost of getting either.

The Cervini's bar + tonneau look SO hot on the car!! WELL worth the money, they really finish off the look.



The car's a little dirty in the pic, but you get the idea.

It's just the harshness from the camera flash combined with the metal halide (spelling?) lights in the convention center. It's actually a black interior (or dark charcoal, or whetever they call it)..
