Brush guard and shocks...

Okay so i am wanting to buy a brush guard for under 150 and am having some troubles finding any that arn't complete crap. If you guys know any decent guards in that price range that come in black that would be awsome!!

I dont want, but NEED shocks. I have seen a ton of different kinds and I'm not really sure what i should get...I am looking to spend under 50 for each shock so $200ish all together, I've looked at monroe, trailmaster, procomp and some others, so what would you guys recamend?

thanks bunches for your help

I just got some SkyJacker Nitro shocks and they seem really nice. 39.99 from Summit

Much better ride, smoother and nice over bumps.

I've got bilstein HD's and I love them. I got them from E-shocks for 260$ for all 4 but i think it was worth it. As far as the brush guard goes i don't know of any. I agree with scuba on the no brush guard but I don't think there is anything wrong with a little form as long as it doesn't take the place of function.

so do you mean that a brush guard/grill guard doesn't offer much protection from a dear? I am just wondering i have never owned one, and there's alot of dear around my house so any protection is better than none...

Brush guards are purely cosmetic. They will not protect against anything.
