I'll hold off on my usual Admiral Ackbar youtube video unless requested.

Anyway I'm looking to finally get a brush guard for my truck and my search on ebay has turned up this: Ford 97-04 f-150/Expedition 4x4 Grille Brush Guard B | eBay
and this: 2003 Ford F150 / Expedition 4X4 4WD Brush Guard 97-04 on eBay!
Same seller Truck Gear Direct different prices both look like Aries or Westin Sportsman copies.

Has anyone done business with these guys?
Has anyone heard of "Hunter grille guard"?

 

Westin is an excellent company- they make & design many of the oem "dress-up" parts. The other company I am not familiar with. You might call Westin and ask for a list of their distributors for that part

 

never heard of hunter or done buisness with that seller. me personally wont buy anything from ebay from anybody with less than 99% positive feedback. i got a westin grill guard off craigs list for 75 bucks and had it powdercoated for another 100.

 

I would agree, thats what feedback is for on eBay, but you have to know how the seller ratings work. A feedback rating of less than 99% is poor, it means that at least one person in every hundred feels cheated enough to report a negative feedback. One can be sure that those who have even that much negative feedback also have lots of neutral feedback, so your chances are between 1:10 to 1:20 of having a less than satisfactory transaction with a 98% feedback rating.

If you stick with 99% positive or better, it means the seller has a good reputation.

 

Looking through their feedback shows that they have fairly consistent problems with shipping times, not answering emails, sending wrong or no parts at all.

I'll keep looking but I may not buy through these guys after all.
I'll keep you guys posted on what I do.

 

Yeah,,,I would watch yourself dealing with them!
They had 25 people in the last 30 days complaining...lol
Look around.

 

Well I just laid down $345 including shipping for a Aries Off-Road Brush Guard from Discount hitch and truck accessories. I manually called the order in instead of going through the website and I have so far nothing to complain about the customer service.

I'm hoping the guard will be in no later than the 27th and I will hopefully pending no issues have installed and wired up with my lights before the 4th July.
