Cali Raised LED 32" Lo Pro Grille LED Light Bar
Cali Raised LED 32" Lo Pro Grille LED Light Bar
A light bar bolted across the top of a bumper works, but it announces itself. It catches wind, it collects bugs, and on a daily driver it looks like exactly what it is. Plenty of people want serious light without the truck looking like it is wearing a light bar.
That is what a low profile light bar designed for grille mounting solves. This is the Cali Raised LED 32 inch Lo Pro: a dual row 300 watt bar putting out 30,000 lumens from 60 premium OSRAM LEDs, with 5D optics for a wide radius and long throw. IP68 rated, extruded aluminum housing, polycarbonate lens. Universal fitment. Two-year Cali Raised LED warranty.
Why Mount in the Grille
A grille light bar is not just a styling choice. It changes how the light behaves and how the truck lives with it.
Out of the Wind
Tucked into the grille opening rather than standing proud of the bumper, so there is far less drag and noise.
Less Exposed
Sitting behind the grille line means less direct contact with branches, debris and car park bollards.
Keeps the Lines
The truck still looks like a truck. Useful if it doubles as a daily driver or you would rather not advertise the build.
Grille openings differ enormously between vehicles, so confirm fitment for your specific truck before ordering. Call us at 844-200-3979 with your year and model and we will check the opening against the bar.
Dual Row and 5D Optics in 32 Inches
This is a lot of output for the length, and two things make it work.
Dual row puts two rows of LEDs in the same span rather than one, which is how 60 emitters fit into 32 inches and where 30,000 lumens comes from. It makes the bar taller than a slim single row, which is fine when it sits in a grille opening rather than on top of a bumper.
5D optics shape each LED's output for a wide radius without sacrificing distance. That matters more on a grille-mounted bar than a roof-mounted one, because the light is starting lower and closer to the ground, so spreading it properly is what fills in the foreground and the edges of the trail.
About the OSRAM LEDs
The emitter brand is one of the few specs that genuinely separates light bars at a given price, and it is the one most listings skip.
OSRAM is a German lighting manufacturer whose automotive LEDs are used as original equipment across the industry. Running 60 of them is what backs the 30,000 lumen figure and the 50,000+ hour lifespan honestly. Cheap unbranded emitters dim measurably within a season of hard use, and often vary in colour temperature across the bar, giving a patchy wash rather than an even one.
How It Compares to the Other 32
Cali Raised makes two 32 inch bars, and they suit different mounting positions.
| 32" Lo Pro Grille (this bar) | 32" Slim Single Row | |
|---|---|---|
| Rows | Dual | Single |
| Optics | 5D Optic | Standard |
| LEDs | 60 OSRAM | 60 |
| Watts | 300 | 150 |
| Profile | Taller, built to sit in a grille | Slim, fits tight openings |
| Best For | Grille mounting, discreet installs | Rack cut-outs, bumper slots, lower draw |
Choose this one for a grille install where you want the output without the bar announcing itself.
Choose the 32" slim single row if you are fitting a narrow rack cut-out or a tight bumper slot, or you want half the current draw.
Why It Keeps Working
Same durability package Cali Raised runs across their bar range.
- Extruded aluminum housing. Stronger than cast, and it doubles as a heatsink, which keeps output stable through a long run.
- Durable polycarbonate lens. Takes stone chips and road debris without cracking the way acrylic does, which matters more at grille height than at roof height.
- IP68 rated. Withstands dust, dirt and sand, and resists submersion to 1.5 metres for up to 30 minutes, which are the actual test conditions behind the rating.
Grille mounting puts the bar in the firing line for road spray, salt and stone chips far more than a roof position does, so the sealing and the lens material earn their keep here.
About the 300 Watt Draw
Worth doing the arithmetic before you fit it. 300 watts on a 12 volt system is roughly 25 amps, which is double the 32 inch slim bar and half the 52 inch curved.
It needs a properly fused, relay-switched circuit rather than being tapped into something convenient, and it is best run with the engine going. If you already run a winch, a fridge and a compressor, add this to your total and check your alternator and wiring can take it. Call us at 844-200-3979 if you want to talk it through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will it fit my grille?
The bar is universal, but grille openings vary enormously between vehicles, so this is the one thing to confirm rather than assume. Call us at 844-200-3979 with your year and model and we will check the opening dimensions against the bar before you order. Some grilles will need a bracket solution rather than a direct fit.
Why mount a light bar in the grille at all?
Three reasons. It sits out of the wind, so there is far less drag and noise than a bar standing proud of the bumper. It is less exposed to branches and car park bollards. And it keeps the vehicle's lines, which matters if the truck is also a daily driver or you would rather not advertise the build.
Should I get this or the 32 inch slim single row?
This one for a grille install where you want the output without the bar announcing itself, and where the taller dual row body is not a problem. The 32 inch slim single row if you are fitting a narrow rack cut-out or a tight bumper slot, or you want half the draw at 150 watts against 300 here.
What do 5D optics do?
They shape each LED's output for a wide radius without sacrificing distance. That matters more on a grille-mounted bar than a roof-mounted one, because the light starts lower and closer to the ground, so spreading it properly is what fills in the foreground and the edges of the trail rather than throwing a narrow beam down the middle.
How much power does it draw?
300 watts, which is roughly 25 amps on a 12 volt system. That is double the 32 inch slim bar and half the 52 inch curved. It belongs on a properly fused, relay-switched circuit rather than tapped into something convenient, and it is best run with the engine going. Worth checking your total draw if you already run a winch and a fridge.
