Default grill guards

Hey guys! I just bought a 1996 dakota about a month ago. First of all, let me say I'm soooo glad to be a proud dakota owner now. It's the v-8 4x4, and yes...it's the manual transmission :-D. I'm lookin forward to lots of fun with it. All that being said, I want to start dressin my baby up. I've searched a lot of places online and can't seem to find a grill guard anywhere...anyone know where I might be able to find one that would fit the 96? If you do, please let me know! Thanks a million!!!

Do you mean like clear or something?The clear ones are real rare, I don't even think more than 500 pairs exist..I had to end up painting mine. Got sick of them and threw on the covers.

I dont know what exactly you guys are looking for the tail light but if you go to ebay.com you can find tail lights with crome trim. as for the front you can find clear markerlights. I also think dodge rams and ramcharger tail lights are the same like 90-92 they come with crome trim but the dakota didnt from factory.

Any leads on a grill guard for a 93 dakota? And how would one raise the lift of the truck using the torsion bars?
