Brush/Bull Bar

I'm finally going to get a brush/bull bar for my Ridge. I've seen some great Burtman Ind. comments. Has anyone else used a different brand? Or better yet, what is everyone else using and would you buy another or recommend it?
.
Thanks!

Re: Brush/Bull Bar

Do you want the type that just goes in front of the license plate or the full wrap around the front of your truck?

We got ours from JC Whitney. You can see our install and results here:

Re: Brush/Bull Bar

I'm not really sure as I like both. I know the Westin type looks good as does the Burtman Ind. type which is what I am swaying towards.

Re: Brush/Bull Bar

I have a G.Tech which looks pretty much like Burtman's current item. (I believe the current version is U.S. made, which mine isn't.) Installation was not hard & there are photos if you click the link in my sig.

Re: Brush/Bull Bar

Burtman's full brush guard now, is made by SteelCraft. I got mine from his first shipment of the "new" model (the US made ones). Quality is awesome, fit was perfect. I love it. if you decide to go with the full brush type of guard, I highly recommend the SteelCraft one. (Click my sig for a larger picture)

I recommend the SteelCraft Bull bar as well.

You will LOVE how it makes your Ridgeline look different from 99% of the ones you see on the street & you have the added bonus of an excellent Wal-Mart shopping cart deflector.

Re: Brush/Bull Bar

I went to order and was shocked when told that shipping and handling would add $120 to the purchase price. I've delayed for a day or two till I either find a closer dealer or find out why it's so expensive.
.
Has everybody else paid that much for shipping?
