Not sure how I feel about the placement of the lights, but you did an excellent job on everything else! What happens if you ever, in the future, want to take off the trailer hitch thing from the frame? Then you'd have to put the lights somewhere else anyways, so why not put them there now?
Food for thought, but it all looks great. Also, that light output looks awesome!

Thank you! I agree with you about the placement of the lights however I have no interest in ever taking the hitch off. I would have to sell my boat and Flagstaff pop-up camper if I did that! If I did want to change the location, all I would have to do is take the 3M adhesive off the back and add a new strip in the new location. The only thing I wish I could've done is move the lights a little more outward toward the wheels but the exhaust comes through the crossmember on the passenger side so it wouldn't be symmetrical and I already know that would bug the hell out if me. But they help tremendously as they are and the output is beyond what I expected!
I really like the linear LEDs too, but I'm trying to think of a cleaver location for them. So far I'm considering the license plate frame. A strip on top and bottom might be pretty nice. Or two verticals?

@yotasavg I thought about that too, I'm just not a huge fan of putting adhesives on the body. Now a license plate frame mount would be another story!
Add more lol!
