The brushguard looks nice.. I just put the over the hood unit on mine.. The Stainless bumper parts are not my taste. I just ordered the oversize billet Hood Latch hold downs, the Billet Vents and Billet locking gas cap door..

They are on the way.. I had to order a couple of parts for a customer so just added the above items for myself. Might as well have the customer paying the shipping .

I think the chrome 520's would be too much. But hell it's your H2.. You have to do what you like.

I installed the over the hood unit myself this past sunday.. Wanted to be able to honestly tell our customers how easy or dificult it is.
The mfg recommend to people to do the install and that it takes apprx. 45 minutes.

I did it by myself and took a little over 2 hour. I did the install at home in my new barn, in this way to simulate how the average consumer would do the install. The only problem I had was getting the to top mount brackets that went thru the grill to line up by myself. I am mechanically challenged and I could do it.. Anybody with a few tools can, especially if they have longer arms then me.

oops!My mistake, I thought that was apix of yours..

Shoot if I can do it anyone can.. Got it on with only the back spazing 3 times.. That added about 20minuites to the install.. You don't have to replace the carry handles, nor do I believe that you will have an upper set of brackets to attach.. All you will haveb to do is take of the lower grill cover. Take your drimell toll cut the back wings off both sides of the piece you took off. Hold the guard up and bolt on the four bolts. Then pop the lower grill thangie back on.. 20 minutes tops.
