Default LEDs on a bull bar: Do I go cubes, bars or round lights?

I"m open to anything, so long as it throws light down the road, looks good and doesn't cost an arm and a ********. I'm considering Rigid cubes (one pair for now, another later...maybe) a 20" LED bar or some round LED housings from Avec LEDs. I'd like to see what you have, brand doesn't matter unless you post your thoughts on their performance, and compare it to others' rigs.

Check out http://caliraisedled.bigcartel.com
They have some nice things, free shipping, and great prices. Id go with a nice dual row light bar.

OSRAM LED bars have my vote. http://www.ebay.com/itm/22Osram-200W-Led-Flood-Spot-Work-Light-Bar-Remote-Control-Strobe-Wiring-Kit-/400927924617?hash=item5d592aa189&vxp=mtrThis is the one I have and it is VERY bright. It easily reaches further than my friends 50" Avec that is like 600$. However, with these OSRAM led bars they are truly meant for distance, there isn't much flood light but honestly there's plenty.

If you go with a light bar, I would NOT get a combo bar. I have one and hate it. Mixing flood lights with spots is counter productive since, if you're in a situation where one is needed, there shouldn't be a need for the other. If you need to see distance in the dark, the flood LEDs will put a lot of light close to you and make your eyes focus close rather than far away.
