Default Besides the norm; options for engine crash guards
I know the options are limited on engine crash guards but I am looking to change mine and was wondering if anyone had any information on some that are more unique. I have looked at the normal options; the lindby and all that. But was interested in finding maybe a custom production type or something a little less in the normal.

Whatever you give me will be greatly appreciated. This is one of the last cosmetic changes I am looking to make on my 2008 EG standard. It is almost perfect for me, looking for something unique.

Thanks for all of you, you have been a great deal of help over the years.

Why not design your own. Have a pipe fitter put it together and then get it chromed or powerdercoated. It'll be truely one of a kind.

Check w/ an offroad fab shop in your area. Most of them have benders and like interesting projects like that (I know the one around here does).
