The front end of a KJ is as wide as a 2003 Toyota Corrolas Front/Back Doors? So she's Smashed but driveable less than I can say for the Corrolla lol. Once again tho a Grille Guard causes lots of Damage too, It stopped the airbags from going off but destroyed everything around it Bumper cover and everything in behind Hood Grille and more un-forseen crap. I'll put up some pictures when I get a Chance. On a side note tho Hella Rallye 3000's are awesomely tough not even a scratch on them and the are what took out the actual Grille.

and you say its driveable so, at least the hella's can act as headlights eh?

Brush guards will always cause a lot of damage if you get in an accident.

Thats why those brushguards are junk
ARB or most any aftermarket bumper ( well when there was a choice) most of the time no damage at all :twisted:

I'm glad it was there tho major damage or not it stopped the AirBags from deploying by absorbing the hit.(Which keeps the KJ from being a right off.)The other guys insurance is paying the bill to fix it was a clean case of him in the wrong.
