Arrow Prerunner style grille guard

Anyone know who manufactures prerunner-style grille guards? I saw one in a catalog at a store, and for the life of me I can't remember the brand name. I want one that looks like the fabtech desert guard, but w/o paying $500+. The one in the store was ~400. Any help is appreciated.

Just put the Westin Ultimate Bull Bar on mine yesterday. Looks great, ~$265 delivered. I know its not a pre runner but its close, and IMO looks better on the X.

Front view of bull bar
Side view of bull bar

Guess Ill throw in a pic of the splash gaurds. Kinda hard to see against a black tire, but it does show the fit against the fender well.

Yeah, I like the look of that one also. $265 delivered? That's pretty cheap. I found the one I was looking at, the Smittybilt Predator, for $345 shipped. I was a little concerned b/c some of the side pics of the bull bar shows the end of the 3" bar. If the bar went back far enough to be hidden, I would definately take a harder look at it. Don't suppose you can take any pics???

Edit: LOL, nice, as soon as i post, you have pics up... now that's what I call response!!

Got it from truckxpressions.com. Their price is actually $309 but they have a $10 price match (competitors price - $10). So I did some searching and found them at gowestin.com for $274. gowestins site is a nightmare to try and figure out how to get a delivered price. Gave the URL to truckxpressions, they check it out then beat the price by $10. So it was $264 (not 265 ). If you buy before the end of the month, westin has a $20 rebate, so my final price will be $244 . The ends of the bars end within 1/4" of the lower air dam.

I too have the same bar (pics in gallery) and wanted the brush guard...
but wanted it in black and they only had chrome like yours.. looks good...
but I've since mounted lights down there and so it stays as is for now !

Like your badges - thought they were custom made !

How long are they supposed to last - made well are they ?
TIA !
