Grill guard or bull bar?
I can't decide whether to get a bull bar or a grille guard. I'm leaning towards bull bar, but they take out the tow hooks. And a full grille guard can look like overkill. I can't seem to find many pics on the internet with them on Rangers that look like mine to compare.

Re: Grill guard or bull bar?
you can put fogs on a grille guard too haha. i dont like how low bull bars hang and they dont protect your truck as much as a grille guard..which looks better IMO

You can use your toe hooks. Have fogs mounted, and it's not overkill.
