MAAP Stainless Brush Guard

[ncranchero]

I've found this MAAP grille guard cheap and want an opinion on how it looks to you guys. It's a stout guard but it looks like it fits a little low on the Gen 1 Sport/Sport Trac. The instruction sheet he sent me says it's for a 1995-2000 Explorer. I wouldn't think the fit would be much different. Funny or not?

Ummmm, need WAY better pics. But i guess its ok

Well, he's already removed it from the truck and these are all he had.

I think the problem will be that the first gen ex is much flatter across the front then the 2nd gen.I don't think it will look right.Plus my 2000 has a much larger frontal area then my 94.

Well not for a Gen 1 Explorer, a Gen 1 Sport Trac, which is comparable to a Gen 2 Explorer.

It looks like its too big for the ST, more like for a F-150. It also looks like a 1st gen Ex style as the center frame mount parts are straight up & down, not curving at the top like a 2nd gens would.

Instruction sheet for it . It attaches outside the frame rails instead of under them.
