I'm debating getting one or the other.  I'm not sure yet.  My H3 is Victory Red (for those who don't know) minus the chrome ( I removed all of the front chrome stuff, including the license plate border ):

Definately the Bull Bar.  Everyone has the brush guard, and in my opinion, it looks cheesy.......The bull bar looks tough!

Brush guard....

Black...

There is reason everybody is doing it... because it looks good... and the style has never gone away..

If you do the bull nose won't you lose the tow rings on the bumper?  Do they make one that you can utilize the rings?

Thanks

I just got the one from ebay...haven't installed yet, but it's a convertible. you can leave the sides off and make it look like a big bull bar, or put the sides on and have it look like a brush guard.....comes in black or stainless.

Go with the Black Brush Guard that's what I put on mine and I have the chrome pkg. and it looks good.  The contrast of the black guard against the chrome lower grill makes it stand out.

We have the black brush gaurd on both. The contrast with the chrome grille looks nice, it's more practical (it is meant to be a brush gaurd for the chrome) the black will hold up better than the chrome when off road (brush rash) since you DO go off road you need to think about that. Just my opinion and I do have pics if you want them instead

I'm looking at getting a brush guard some time in the spring when I take her off road more. The bull bar looks mean but when I'm going thru brush, I really don't need a cop pulling me over later with a fix it ticket because I broke a headlight on something stupid.

Bull bar will most likely decrease your approach angle...

Looking to go to a black bushguard on mine, so the vote to cast was easy.
