Exclamation Brush Guard Question

Hey guys/gals,

I'm looking for a brush guard, preferrably stainless, that either has tow hooks on it or doesn't bolt up to the existing tow hook mounting holes. I do not want to give up my tow hooks. I know there are some bull bars that do not use the tow hook mounting holes but I want full protection, plus the grill guard looks tougher anyway. Also, it'd be nice if the grill guard had lighting stubs on it.

Thanks.

Tim

Not sure of the chrome style but my black one from WAAG is like you asked for. Just check their web page, http://www.waag.com/grilleguard/. I also like the way it follows the lines of the grill.

Westin Sportsman KD stainless grill guard uses the tow hook mounts but the brackets you put in place as to allow the guard to go in place also allow for the hooks to be reinstalled without compromise. I know because I pulled a 3/4 ton crew cab Chevy out of a ditch with a strap and one hook with the guard in place. 10 minutes to install also, very easy. 1997 Ford F-150 XLT S/C 4x4.
