You're lying. My bar was further forward with no bars to "peek" through and still lost some output. Just for everyone that's never seen my install quite a long time ago...

Lol. Like usual ADD had another f up. The powder coat on my bumpers had some flaws. You can see it in the pic on the right of the front bumper. Those aren't finger smudges. I tried every product in my garage to get that off and no luck. They had me take pics and send it to them and they say they will have a solution tomorrow. Hopefully refund the powder coating costs so I can get it done locally and not have to send them back.

Damn dude I'll never buy from ADD... I have yet to see someone's purchase go smoothly with them... They need to get it together, they certainly make good looking bumpers though!!

I keep trying to tell everyone not order their powder coat cause its **** but it seems no one is listening haha. I ordered a stealth bumper for my truck and now I'm playing the waiting game we all know so well.

I'm really digging the ADD front bumper, too. So I'm glad to hear of this now. I would of pretty irked to spend $1200 and end up with 'shoddy' powdercoating.

I have the flood and they cast a decent light but still have two distinct focus beams when you look behind the truck.
These are flood.

Yeah I posted on there about the crap powder coat on my sliders and my fiasco with the install. But it came down to me loving the look of their bumpers so I still ordered the stealth for my truck. But when you order it bare they take $100 off. Then I'm going to get it coated in line x platinum and never have to worry about it again.

All of the 11-up f150 bumpers from ADD were designed off my truck. (Non raptor) I didn't have any problem with their powder coating on my ecoboost stealth bumper. (First one ever produced) but I know they did just transition into a new, larger shop and 3rd party their powder coating. If you guys are repeatededly getting shotty coats from them, I will give the guys a heads up. I know em on a first name basis and I'd hate for their reputation to get bashed over something like that.....
