SMA brush guard and new pictures
Hey guys, I put my SMA brush guard on this friday and got around to taking some pics today, but my laptop that I edit my pictures on with photoshop died on me about a month back, so I don't have any editing programs... for now...
So here is a link to my webshots gallery of what I took today: http://rides.webshots.com/album/556470589xmxnUS
Enjoy!
P.S. the black grill will be in soon
edit: one of 15 I've uploaded so far tonight. Tomorrow I'm visiting my gf in Cleveland and picking up a buddy from Penn State on my way home Tuesday, so don't expect any more pictures in the meantime... although hopefully the black grill will be in when I get back... then you can expect alot of pictures

RE: SMA brush guard and new pictures
Hey guys, sorry I was MIA for a lil bit there...
Thanks for the compliments everyone(LOL @ the trophy emoticon!!)
It literally took me under 10 minutes to open the box, take the guard out of the wrapping, take off the tow hooks, put the guard on (friend held it in place while I put the tow hooks back on) and screw everything back together..
The tow hooks come off really easily, all you need are 2 wrenches to unscrew the actual nut & bolt that hold the hook on, then a socket wrench and a torx driver for the base plate.
Williecee: what did you use to shave down the back of the tow hook plates? I am putting on the black grill tomorrow and I will be taking the guard off then anyway.. thanks!

I used an air grinder. A dremel tool will also work.
Even w/o your friend, you could do it yourself by starting one outside bolt thru the hook plate on one end, then lift the other side and start the other bolts.
I took the guard out of the box at UPS and they got rid of it for me, I had to move the guard around in the back to get the door to close.
