Good Brush Guards

SnoMan · 07-20-2009, 10:52 PM

I have been looking for a brush guard for my truck for a while now and really havent found 1 thats not like $500. I would REALLY like a stainless one and i found one on deals of steel and it is a manik nock off but was still really nice looking. My truck is black so i figure polished stainless is best. Any help or giuidence is much appreciated. TIA

if you have the means make one yourself or have someone make you one, this way here you can make it to what you want

I would make one but i dont have access to a welder that can nicely weld stainless. My uncle works at a manuf. company and he said it could end up costing possibly more than buying one (of course i asked for 4 off road light mounts, and a winch mount

) he said w/out those it would be around $475-500 if his boss lets him and his friends do it. Sound reasonable?

Dont use stainless and youll keep your cost down. Just paint/linex your guard black and call it a day.

I want stainless cause it will look nicer longer and the on my truck is black and polished aluminum and stainless. If i painted it i would want it gloss black and with that it wont stay nice for long. Plus around here they use tons of salt and it would destroy it in a short amount of time. And i dont want to take it off cause deer around here are a big problem. Are there any afforable stainless full brush guards out there now?
