Homemade, I pieced them together from hardware and made the brackets. Couldn't justify spending over 60 bucks on ones that looked like they'd snap off anyway. These cost about 27 bucks total.

I have a light bar and just tapped it and screwed two bolts in. I'm sure that it could be done right alongside the inner driver's door frame and the passengers the same way basically without damaging anything and only leaving a small screw visible.

I can't tell you how sharp that hood looks. I'm getting one and had wondered whether to have it painted to match my factory black or instead to go with something different like flat rattle-can black to stand out from the rest of the body, but after seeing yours I definitely will go with factory match paint. Great rig!

Thanks for the compliments! I went through the same exact dilemma and decided on the end that it would look unfinished if I had it sprayed flat black. If anything I might bedline the grille to offset it.
