August 20, 200916 yr Author It's just a brushguard like Dave's, and the white bar generally goes behind the bumper for added protection. In my case, the only protection. Someone welded expanded metal in at some point, i like the way it looks. NVZeno stumbled across the brush guard and tipped me off. I think he'll be impressed, with how godawful it looked before.
August 20, 200916 yr Yeah i recognized it as a stock guard, but in addition to the wire mesh, those two bars on each headlight hoop are added as well. Did you score it from the junkyard??
August 20, 200916 yr I have the same bar minus the screen. I didn't know anyone else actually had the reinforcement bar that spreads from the bumper brackets...I have that, its hidden behind my bumper, makes the thing as solid as a rock. could probably yank a house down with it. Usually when the bars are sold, they don't come with that back bar. cool cool looks nice.
August 20, 200916 yr Wow..that brushguard looked pretty sorry when I saw it at the yard. Great job on making it look so good!
August 20, 200916 yr Author in addition to the wire mesh, those two bars on each headlight hoop are added as well. Did you score it from the junkyard?? You know, i didn't even notice that. You're right. Wierd. Yep, came off a DL wagon @ the Carson yard
August 20, 200916 yr That looks great! I have an OEM "A" style bar that I need to clean up and put on the car.
August 20, 200916 yr You should goto Autozone and pick up a can of the Rustoleum spray on bedliner. And do a light/even coat on that thing. It will match the rack (hell, re-do the rack too cause that job I did is like 6 years old).
August 22, 200916 yr looks neat but will the vertical parts in front of the headlights cause blind spots in your field of vision at night?? :-\
August 22, 200916 yr Author looks neat but will the vertical parts in front of the headlights cause blind spots in your field of vision at night?? :-\ Yea, it kinda does, but I use the high beams exclusively, unless there's oncoming vehicles. I could see it as potentially being a problem in populated areas, but i'm pretty much in the sticks.
August 22, 200916 yr Author just one more reason to get some aux. lights to mount on there. I have the ones on the rack wired up finally. They're useless. Bright as ************, but too much glare off the windshield.
August 23, 200916 yr Yeah thats why I never had lights up there. Always blinded me when I tried to drive.
August 23, 200916 yr it has a certain MAD MAX appeal, I dig it - definitely makes it look like you mean serious business
August 23, 200916 yr Looks awesome!! Will definitely keep the sticks out, and protect them headlights.
