With the bull bars I am pretty sure that you will lose your front tow hooks. and the bar goes over where the hooks were but you can still see the mounting holes, looks bad IMO.

Looks like very easy installation, but does not look good imo.

I think it looks OK, but has several drawbacks. First, you lose the towhooks as IK said. Second, it reducesyour approach angle. Third, it offers less protection for front of truck. All in all, I would rather rather go with full grill guard.

I actually like the looks of the bull bar. Maybe thats because I have one on my H3. It does reduce your angle of approach on a stock truck, but when you raise the front end and add 35" tires you basically regain what was lost. I decided to go with it because I didn't want to cover up the bad-*** looking chrome Hummer grill and I wanted some chrome on the lower bumper area. Also I gives you a good place to mount off-road lights. Hopefully tomorrow I will finally post some pics of my baby. Got her all cleaned up and looking sharp yesterday.

BTW, its good to see Importkiller posting again.

Wow that looks great now I want them even more...... I actually hate the look the regular bars look like on H3..... especially the part u mentioned, they cover the best looking part ofthefront of yourtruck, the front grill.
