Hey guys! I just got my 2015 and love it. but its kind of plain jane and needs a little custom touch. every truck ive owned has had a grill guard of some sort. Now with this being my first super duty I cant decide if I want to have a grill guard or full replacement. I pull gooseneck trailers and don't want to lift the truck, will be replacing with some more aggressive tires than the current Michelins. I want to have a way to mount a light bar or offroad lights, I use them quite a bit when in the pasture. If I go with a full replacement is it going to squate the front end and look like a fat lip? I mainly want something that is going to protect the front of the truck from brush and small impacts. I really like the prerunner style as well. below are some links to the ones I'm looking at if I could get your opinions id really appreciate it.
Personally, I'd get a stout one that comes up and actually protects the grill a bit. I don't know where you live, but deer are nothing to sneeze at around here and they'll go straight over your bumper right into your grill/hood!
Out of the options you posted the Cattleman looks the best to me.
What I dislike about some aftermarket bumpers, they stick out too far IMO.
They make the profile of the truck look like it has an underbite.

I have always thought the same thing. Looks like they have a fat lip from the side.
Thanks for the input guys. I thiunk I'm leaning towards the ranch handi it some standard with the lights and plugs directly into the factory harness. just wish someone was running one so I could get a side shot of it and see how it looks.
I have a Ranchhand legend on my 2014 and love it, it's real protection from deer and things like that and protects the entire grill. It was fairly reasonably priced and surprisingly easy to install, (using pallet forks).
