IMO, with the way this new "tree guard" is designed, the first time you bump one of the corners or square up to something, it's going to "twist" without any other support. I think your hood will be more prone to getting smacked by the guard. I can tell from teh pics that it is more stout thatn the mount on teh SMA guard, but it still looks like teh guard will allow it to twist. How much does the upper portion of it way?
It's too bad travis didn;t come up with a way to support trhough the hood panel with a cross brace under the hood. Than it would have been a TREE GUARD, shpping cart smasher.
I thought that was the original plan on this design?
