Dont know why but if option A: is as pictured, Im leaning towards that one. Obviosly option B is cheaper

my bull bar is black horse and is high quality....

and the black horse looks like it would be a cleaner fit IMO

so that is my choice

 

[NC-Expy]

A looks real good. I want one for my truck!

 

[SOLISIMO]

The problem is the black horse uses the same grille guard pic for all their guards so there is no way of knowing what it looks like. Here is one I found but remember my lights are different.

Email them and see if they can get you a pic of one on a third gen

[EMendoza93]

[SOLISIMO]

I like option A for sure. I just got off their site and they have one for 2nd Gens too. This guard actually looks very much like the Waag I was looking at, but much, much cheaper. Why do you think the difference in price from Waag to Black Horse? Just brand name price bumping? I'm gunna write them and see if they have a pic on an 04 Expy cause this could be the way to go for me!

EDIT:

Maybe if we buy two directly from the manufacturer we could get a price break?

dark horse is a brand I never hear about much, the first one looks better but honestly i would say get it from westin and not ebay. i see alot of people buy cheap grille guards and they rust out in a few years. like they always say you get what you pay for.

Holy Hell, this looks like it should be on a Law Enforcement armored vehicle!!!!

yeah, but you get to ram shit....

and at 10 miles of fuel economy loss that would leave me at aprox 1 MPG...don't think I can afford that right now lol!

Look at post number 4, I posted a pic on your gen expy

Its all made from the same material and powdercoated, you paid for the name, Im not. Its the same as those crap ass HID kits. Some cost more some cost less, they are all made in the same factory in China and this I know first hand. Its all about the marketing, and people think just bc they pay more for the HIDs that they are better, which is false.

Ok found a pic and it looks nothing like the ebay pic. Obviosly its not the black one but same thing. To me Id get the other one and save the money.

I like it, but you'd be getting the powder coated right, not chrome?

I struggle to picture guards on my truck unless the picture is of a black truck lol. Guess I lack imagination!

Yeah it will be all black the pic is the only one they have.
