Ok guys I need to know WHERE you all got your grill guards, bull bars, and tail light guards and HOW MUCH it was. I would love to pay under $400 for a grill guard but I know that is pushing it!

Just installed the Aires brush guard and tail lamp guards today.
The brush guard is a top quality part, that really fits the MS well. It really looks "right". It was installed in about 30 minutes by 2 non-mechanicaly inclined people. Very simple but very solid. There is no drilling or fabrication needed, just a couple wrenches and a screwdriver. The only minor oddity is the top stabilizer bracket. It mounts using the license plate mount screws in the plastic captive nuts. Once I removed the license plate I noticed 2 "proper" looking holes just out of reach of the bracket that would have been much more appropriate.
The tail lamp guards are a different story. I was very displeased with the fit. They really are there more for look than anything. They stick out a bit too far (even after some tweaking), and require you put 2 self tapping screws into the side of your lamps. Seems like a bad idea.

I don't have a link, just got a magazine from them (requested from their website). It was in the back where they list all the equipment they have for each auto manufacturer.

Aires Grill/Brush guard 9/10 Aires Tail lamp guards 4/10 A new taillamp is often far less $$ than a guard costs...and from everything I have ever seen on the trail, the "guards" do far more damage than the protect from....same goes for the grille guards...often they give up and mash into the grille, lights and fenders whereas with out these parts you'd often have just got a small rub or scrape. |
