Question Help with locating the right Grille Guard???

I'm trying to find a "guard" that looks like this but with a brushed silver look, not chrome, or black powder coat. anyone have any ideas??

http://www.ustruckaccessorieswhse.com/wes-bull.html

Any search tips?? I can't figure what they are called exactly.

I think I've seen an avatar around here somewhere that has what I'm looking for?

Thanks!

When I do a search for that all I find are Westins, or black or chrome bars.

If you won't find any brushed stainless steel bull bar, you can always use some spray paint on the black one. Just an idea...

I wouldn't use spray paint. I'm going to get one and have it painted Millenium Silver Metallic to match my 4Runner. I don't see spray paint holding up over the long run.

Can you even paint over black powdercoat?? I want to get it to the same color as the factory LTD wheels.

Sure, as long as you prime it.

VHT makes a wheel paint that is the same color as the limited wheels, and it resists chipping, etc.
