Hey guys,
Question. I am still picking out the right brush guard and I like the stainless Aries one. Now looking at the suvxcessory.com or what the site is, there is AutoXtreme brush guard identical to the Aries (on the picture) for like $200 less. I would rather get better quality, but is there a difference in quality there or not? Anyone has experience with either of the two?

Here is the site:

That AutoXtreme brush guard is a 3 piece unit. If you investigate this you will have bolts showing on the front tubes.

I take it the exposed bolts are a bad thinbg, not a cool industrial look accesory :-)

I bought the Aries brushguard. It is a three piece guard and yes the bolts show. If you get the black one you can paint them over and they wouldnt show as much. Its a fairly sturdy bar and I liked the look when I saw it. There are alot of nicer ones now. Do a search for them or check out the Picture boards. heres a pic of mine ,,you can see the bolts. See ya...

I think I actually like the exposed bolts....it does look kind of "Purpose" built.....if that makes any sense at all.

I see you have those window vents. How do you like them? Do they reduce your view?
