I posted pics of my push bumper last week for opinions because I was on the fence about it. Ended up taking it off. The brush guard you have looks okay if you are really going to use it for driving through brush. But if it was just for looks I would vote against it too. With nice painted bumpers on FX4 I wouldn't be cruising through the bush anyway if possible.

I use my truck as a truck. With these horrible tires I'm not comfortable trekking too far out though. Soon that will be remedied.... If all goes well.

Any clearance issues opening and closing the hood. Looks close.

By the way I saw your thread, Sluggo. I have to admit I did not like that push bumper. Something like what is currently on mine would look great, if not better, on yours.

I am not going to put anything on at this point. My truck will not leave the pavement very often. Once in awhile to get into a cut corn or bean field to load up my deer but no tight trails.

that's the best looking brush guard I've seen for a F150. The tail light guards look good as well. Had both on an old Land Rover back in the day before the ARB went on.

have you tried straightening out the tabs that you use to mount the taillight guards? They look slightly bent inward, a bit of flattening away from the tailgate may be all you need to get the clearance you want!

Hood clearance: As it sits I can't open the hood. The ingenious part of the design is the two adjustable bolts in the middle of the brush guard. They lock in place and when I need to get under the hood a quick unlock flick and a few turns allows the guard to rock forward to allow the hood to function.

I wouldn't put them on my ride, but only b/c i have the chrome package. I like my chrome, but don't need any more than I have. If i added tail light covers I'd prob have to go with more chrome to match. BUT I think those look great on your truck. I subtle "tough" accent. I really like them.

Looks ok, How often do broken tail lights happen? I bet they will work well if there is a riot:-)
