it looks like a nice one, but the "soon" listed for the 2005 model turned into a "never" I think.
There are a lot of differing opinions on if the brush guard will really do anything to guard against brush, or anything else. The biggest argument is that it will keep the brush off your grill.....but it will still smack down on the sides of the jeep and scratch it there anyway.
Also, some pretty good reasoning that says if you get into a collision, it can cause MORE damage, because now the brush guard will bend the frame and push it into the lights/grill/etc. Hard to compare what gets damaged with the guard to what would have been damaged without the guard, since no two accidents are the same. It's just something to think about. I think it's nice to get the brush guard for asthetics and light-mounting purposes only. But then again, why spend $300+ on a grill guard when you can spend $700 on an arb?
