Default Brush/Grill Guard

I have a 2011 F150 XLT Screw that I bought back in February this year. When I visit my girlfriend in NH my only option is on-street parking. Since I work from home, I sit so I can see my truck from inside her apartment. So far, I have been hit ever so slightly by two cars, four times. No major damage, slight plastic scuff.

So instead of watching it all day and not doing work :-), I was looking for a brush guard or something of the sort to put on there so that my truck stays fresh, and they have a huge dent. :-P Any suggestions on something that won't look out of place on a stock truck? Maybe some pictures of yours?

Or maybe some other options.

Thank you. Purchased from Auto Anything. Manufacturer is Steel Craft. Very solid construction and heavy duty feel to it.

If people repeatedly keep hitting your parked truck, I'd suggest mounting a .50 cal to the truck lol

I'd get a couple of pieces of angle iron and mount them to the tow hook bolts. Two pieces, sticking straight out about 6 inches oughta do it.

Hummer style. I'll cut a hole in the roof and hop in the back seat.

I though about this too, actually. Something simple, but gets the job done. :-)
