Output is pretty good actually. there a SLIGHT loss obviously but the mesh pattern is so open it works well.
My 40" is awesome at the bottom but 30" along the top of the grille is great too. I use one or the other not at the same time... there more for show than function. one GOOD light bar is all you need.

Are those Hanning single row light bars? I may need to hit you up for some of those.

Yes I am. 1.25" BORA's. The wheels have a 34 mm offset so that adds another 10mm over the stockers. All considered I am about 1.6" wider stance each side before tires.
