Roof attachment for off-road vehicles

As an addition to the off-road body kit - the roof attachment!

For example, roof attachments for American cars such as the Dodge Ram are commercially available. Other vehicles such as the G-Class from Mercedes or the Ford F-150 can also be fitted with suitable roof attachments. Basically, you can buy such an attachment for almost every car. It's just not always visually fitting. But everyone should decide for themselves. Stylish variants can be purchased that are shaped like a roof spoiler for the front roof area or components that stand out from the rest with a completely different shape. The roof spoilers are often equipped with lamps and are attached so that additional headlights are available after installation. If you are looking for less stylish variants that can be purchased as a lamp kit at reasonable prices, then you are in the right place with an LED lamp kit, for example from Sunvisor.
