Need pics of Brush guard w/ billet grille

Hey guys...does anyone have any pics of a full brush guard with the billet grilles? How would that look? I have the CW full replacement, upper and lower. How would a chrome brush guard look with that? or is it too over done? thanks

I think the full brush guards hide to much of the front end of these trucks. I have a buddy with a full westin brush guard and I think it is way to much. He has a FX4 with the 5 piece CW grill. Honestly when he is coming towards you you can't tell his 04 from a 97-03. These trucks look to good to hide.. I'd like to go with a bull bar type bar.

too overdone, guards clutter the front end up too much IMO. and you put a nice grille on there, why hide it?

That looks like the westin I was referring to in my previous post.
Here is what I mean about the wrap around grill guard completely hiding the front end.

Thats hideous... These trucks have a beautiful front end. The most I would put on it is a Bull bar or something subtle.

It's 4wheel parts brand GSP, I think it's actually made by Manik.

Hey TX FX4, how much clearance is there between the awesome looking brush guard you have and the hood? Is there a way to hinge the guard forward like the Manik to open the hood since they look very similar? I read the GSP one is made by Manik. Thanks in advance.
