I'm sure you'll love it for years to come! .... on your questions,... Look through a lot of these threads on here & put some ideas together. You will hear many opinions & advantages & disadvantages to help you make your decision(s) on what you'd like to do.
You have a 2wd, so remember on some suspension questions, it will be different than 4wd models.

Anyone with any experience on the Peragon M3 cover? Reviews? Opinions? I really like the retract mode.

I think that a biggest reason to go with any kind of bull bar is to protect the (whole) front of the truck.
The pic you posted would do nothing to protect your corners......FYI, the HID headlights are $1200.00 EACH over the counter at your local friendly Ford dealer! Add in hood, fender and bumper damage if you take a deer to the side of the one in the pic, and you might as well not have one.....JMHO....

Im pretty sure most of the bull bars bolt onto the tow hook mounts, and with you being a 2wd, you dont have them. I believe you have to get the 4x4 front valence to swap out with yours or cut holes in yours. Someone who has done this ca n verify. Probably not worth the $$ and effort imo.
