I'd really like something just like that; it has protection for the plastic headlight doors and
you can attach tow hooks and accessories (even toilet seats [1]) to the receiver hitch. But,
more importantly, can it be securely attached to an 80-86 frame....

well, sir....
Cons: weight, destroys the stock look of your pickup
Pro: protects front end(we get many deer strikes, here) , distinctive look
