Brushguard & Body Lift
OK, well the situation is a known to me, however a solution is not. Situation: with a 2" or 3" body lift and a brushguard, it looks funky. The headlight parts don't cover the headlights because the brushbuard mounts to the frame, not the body. Body goes up and the frame stays in place. And then if you raise the bumper up, you have the guard sitting or even forced up against the bumper. Has this one been solved yet or am I treading new ground here?

Get a TJM or ARB
Bite the bullet and get a REAL brush guard and bumper!
Or make some custome brackets to lift the brush guard the same amount of body lift. Shouldn't be hard at all. Just take the brackets for the brush guard off and add enough extra bracket to move the wholes the amount of lift. Any fab shop should be able to make such a creature. Might even check into a jr. college welding class doing it for you as a project. We used to do that kind of stuff all the time for practice when I took welding and it didn't cost the person but materials. Labor was free and we got experience!
