Brushguards and grille protectors

[blazzingbrandon]

I was wondering how good those aftermarket brushguards and grill guards are. Do they really protect, and against what... a tiny accident, lol. I'm really considering getting one, not just to make it look better but to maybe protect me from some minor font end collisions.

They do what they say and in a bad accident(is there ever a good accident?) can take out your hood and tweek your frame really nice...but on the flipside do protect you in minor accidents from bumper/grill damage and are great on 4x4's for pushing brush down as you go over it pushing cattle out of way.As well as makes a nice mount on some for winch to hoist self,deer,elk,hogs and drunk friends passed out...lol

They also can make for a nice surf rod holder or front mounted seat if modified like an old one I had that I mounted a front receiver hitch on for the beach..can use back receiver hitch for a lugage/gear rack as well..just have one welded with a flat deck that slides into receiver hitch...put in your pin.Creativity as always has it benifeits at times...be creative lol

Dont know much about the functionality but I have one my 97 and I thought I would let you see what it would look like.

Brandon,

Thought i would just paste in a pic, but as you can see it didnt work to well, I had to downsize it quite a bit but I did upload a few pics into my gallery, feel free to take a look.
