New Hunter Brushguard installed yesterday.
Hey guys, I just got my Hunter stainless steel brushguard in fro my 07 H3. I think it looks good. I was torn between black powdercoating or the polished SS version. I like the big chrome front grille so I decided I didn't want to hide it underneath black tubes so I went with the naked steel. I think it looks great, want to wash her up real nice and get some pics of her shining in the sun then get her all muddy again.
Here's a few pics:

thatlooks really sweet!! Don't know if it's possible on that one but those black rubber/plastic strips thatcover the main support (next to the headlights) should come off. If they do try to take them off occasionally and clean underneath...I had a black pushbar on my old bronco and never took those plastic things off to clean and after awhile the bar started to rust really bad under there...I didn't catch it until it was too bad to save.
Mark, yes I got the guard from those guys down in Houston (Stafford actually). Those are the same guys I got my GM OEM Nerf Bar steps from for cheap.
Thanks for the heads up Importkiller. This pushbar has the "T" welded to the front and the rubber slides over the top of the T, should be really durable and not roll or slide off easily. Hunter brags about how their rubber trim is superior to other brands out there.
Also, these are all stainless steel, not chromed. I know SS isn't supposed to rust but we all know it can over time, I'll keep an eye on the trim, if it gets crunchy underneath I'll see if I can't remove the rubber trim and clean it out real good. The Hunter guards carry a lifetime warranty even on the black powedercoated ones. Most of the others may warrant their SS versions for life but some only cover the powdercoated ones for 3-5 yrs.
I like the setup, installation was pretty easy until I stripped the Torx bolt inside the tow hook block, other than that it was pretty easy to do, glad I didn't have to remove the bumper.

I'm glad you liked the guard. I purchased a Hunter brush guard last year for my 2006 H3. The guard looked really good in the beginning. However, just after a few months, the surface has many rust spots and the welds started to rust and crack. I called Hunter several times and got the run around. They said that I hit something and that is the reason the guard is cracked. That is not true. Now, the weld is completely broke and Hunter do not stand behind their warranty. I do not recommand anyone buy Hunter products. [:@]
