Default mbrp grill guard.

just received my grill guard!!!! cool.

packaged well. first impression, looks good and good quality however mine does not have a textured finish?? has a smooth kind of glossy finish. not sure why.

came with three separate packages; two are brackets and the other is bolts, washers and stuff. no install instructions though so i have to find out about that.

have to leave to work soon so no pictures...sorry man. as soon as i get a chance.

HBomb!

I'm glad to hear you received your grill guard today! I apologize for not having the instructions in the box. These were packaged as soon as they arrived back from the powder coaters and were were making final revisions to our instructions. I emailed copy's of the instructions to other pre order members. I had one email bounce back to me because of an incorrect address so if there is any way you could PM, call or email me, I will get the instructions sent out to you ASAP.

I just wanted to make sure that you knew the pictures I posted the other day of the textured finish were something we had looked at and realized that although it looked good, there is no way we could have offered Line X for $99.00. The matte powder coating is an excellent coating that we have used for years on our trucks for step bars, bumper bars and roll bars with outstanding results.

Here is a picture of what this kit includes:

got 'er done today. pretty easy install. the hardest part was cutting the pockets at each end of the filler panel between the bumper and the grill. you have to do that to slide the mounting brackets through to bolt to the frame.

pretty damn solid and i think it looks great!!

now it just needs the kc's.
