I absolutely love my westin. It's sturdy for a bull bar. Protected my from a deer already. Do you looks or protection? A full brush guard will serve a better purpose.

I don't have lights on it yet. Those are coming in the very near future though. I'm considering either KC or Westin lights. I didn't have to order it. A off-road shop near my town had one in stock. A guy ordered it, never put a down payment on it, and never came to pick it up. He cut me a deal on it!

I got a Westin bull bar as well but it certainly isnt the cheapest on the market. Aries makes a decent one i heard that is cheaper than westin. There is also companies like Trail FX, Black Horse, Bully, Steelcraft, Tuff-Bar...just to name a few that make them for our trucks. That was just looking at the pages of stuff from ebay. There has to be tons more out there. I have 2 130w KC Daylighters Driving lights on my westin as well as I PTM'd the skid plate:





Need to get the license plate relocation kit....whoops.haha.



Nightshaded the yellow KC light covers

PTM=paint to match.

They bull bars on eBay for $150 shipped in chrome or black. If you only want it for looks that's the cheapest way to go. They have mounting holes for lights too. As far as protection, you get what you pay for.
