Question You Guys With Grille Guards

Hey guys, got a new question/request for yall. if you have grille/brush guards on your truck please post a picture and where you got it. Would love to see them. I need a little help deciding which would look the best on my truck and pretty much where i can get them. Any help will be much appreciated. thanks

if you cant find one you like, you might find someone who can weld and bend the pipe, and make you one, start by making the uprights, then go from there.

actually, I had planned on it being, 3 uprights, and two angles going toward the back. The pipe wasnt realy big enough for what I had in mind, but we only have one die for our pipe bender, and one size of pipe. so we tried to compensate with that. My brother said lets just do two uprights, and a crossmember on both. and one angle going back. so we did. lol

well, if you are, do it ASAP, the test and classes are getting harder and longer. lol I'd never try to discourage anyone who wants to do it. It's kind of a thankless job, but its a very rewarding one. where are you from sayer?

(btw, I dont mean to hijack your thread with my stuff, just get carried away when it comes to swapping ideas. lol)
