Little busy isn't it? I don't mind the wrap around bumper guard, I'm not fond of the way it comes up and around the hood filler/handles.

Ditto. Don't like the handles either.

it's differnt! not bad.

But look at the way it mounts. If you bump anything, I would be more worried about the way it is bolted into your hood. Instead of replacing a brushguard, you may be dealing with a new hood.

alot or almost all of these so called "brushguards" are funny to me, unless u can really ram some ****t with it than wat is the point, i remember when i had the wrangler back in the day there was a company called tompken machine that made some "real" guards my buddy had one on his cherokee and that thing was a brushguard im almost positive u could run right throug a brick wall with it and not need a bodyshop after u were finished

To be so large, I don't think the tubes are large enough. I prefer this one. It even has mounts that go through the grill to the stock bg attachment points. The one listed above doesn't.

The design of the one on ebay has to use the holes for the handles for support, where the one Ken posted is designed to be stronger over the hood without having to use the handle mount locations.
