[TR] TR4A badge bar

I am thinking of adding driving lights to my TR4A.  Due to the hood tipping 
forward, clearance is a real issue.  Positioning needs to be pretty tight to 
the grille so they won?t interfere with the hood.

I have not seen any commercial badge bars to which I might mount the lights.  
Since the lights are heavier than badges, the bar would need to be pretty 
stable, too.  I saw that Moss sells clamps for stem-mount lights and the clamps 
fit a 3/4? diameter bar.  So, I am looking for a 3/4? diameter bar.

Any suggestions?

Alternatively, I might be able to fabricate my own bar and custom arms which 
would piggyback to the bumper mounts.  I see that 3/4? 304 stainless 16 gauge 
tube stock is not terribly expensive.  That would be a possibility, but I did 
not find any end caps that would be suitable.  Any suggestions on this 
approach?  Source for end caps that do not rely on a pipe thread?
