I was looking at that brushguard as well. The only problem and reason why I didn't get it is because of the 2 pieces of rubber that wrap around the 2 vertical posts. From the pictures at the top of the auction page, it looks like the two vertical posts are tubes like the rest of the grill, but as I scrolled down I realized that the vertical posts are actually flat bars in which black rubber is wrapped around. it. In the long run, you might have to deal with the rubber discoloring or cracking. I personally would pick up the GM OEM black brushguard. Yes, you will end up spending $150 - $200 more, but at least you won't have to deal with the black rubber issue. I don't think the vertical posts on the OEM brushguard is tubular as well, but at least the outside covering looks solidly constructed. As stock as it is, it still looks hefty and solid. Here's one I've been looking at: H3 Factory Brushguard or you can BLING BLING I was considering picking it up, but paying close to $300 in shipping to fly it over the ocean is pretty tough for me to swallow. You on the otherhand, are probably a part of the continental U.S., so you can happily take advantage of the $29.99 shipping & handling... jus' kidding. I'd go for it! NB

It's an old topic, so rather than start a new thread I decided to refresh it ;) I got my SS Hunter brush guard on Tuesday. I paid for it $250 - shipping already included and it took them only 4 days to deliver it to my doorstep. It took me about 25-30 minutes to install (installation is veeery simple). Brushguard looks pretty solid, materials used appear to be of good quality. As far as looks - I acutally like this one better than OEM, to me it's more rugged than GM's - but that's only me I guess... Thumbnail Image

I think this makes a huge difference on the Hunter stuff: A buddy has one on his old ford truck. The rubber gets nicked up, but seems to never be in danger of coming off. They have some nice looking "flat" steps that I once thought about getting....till I got the bug for some rock rails. Nice looking truck by the way....love that color......
