Hunter brand makes good and inexpensive full brush guards and bull bars. personally i'd just go with a set of tow hooks from an f-150 or Expedition. more functionality and practicality if you plan on spending time off road or mudding. if your looking for a bull bar to mount lights on, just mound some 5 or 7 inch lights behind the grille
 






I am partial to the brushguards, I own a Hunter and I love it.
 






I would get a brush gaurd. I didnt like my bull bar, not as sturdy. An push bars are for cops lol. If ya got a few extra coin id go full bumper ;)

Who would you recommend for a full bumper? I cant find anything...
 






No one actually makes them for our 3rd gens, Most people who have them have them custom made, or I know of a few who have retro fitted ones from other models
 






Any recommendations for fab people?

Brandon at BTF (who makes lift spacers here on the site) might be looking into making bumpers, but I dont know of anyone else, you might try to pm N.Gardner and talk to him about his bumper, its total custom.

Yeah, my bumper is 100% costom work. I had it made at a shop called east coast offroad headquarters (ECOH). Its located in Forest Hill MD, I see your in SC so thats a good drive. You can prob craigslist offroad shops or fabricators, but make sire its legit. Not some dude in his garage, (learnes that from experience lol)
