Default Westin Bull Bar

Thinking of getting one to put on my 09 blue sport. I was thinking of getting the black one to match black projector headlights. Just wondering if anyone can post some pics of theirs and give some input on how you like it and anything i should know about. Thanx for the info!

I have one and have good luck with it so far. Its not going to stop a deer but it makes the truck look sharp. Check out my profile, I have a pic or two on it that I took for another guy on here. One thing to note is that you have to cut your plastic nose dam under the bumper so it fits but that was easy to do.

Hey i'm actually installing a black Westin as we speak. I installed the brackets and all yesterday. The skidplate was aluminum color so i took it off and painted it black with PlastiDip paint. So far everything went good i'll post some pictures when i'm all done then you can see how it looks on a sport

CHEERS

That's the stock location for the liscense plate. I didn't get the relocate kit. The lights in it are just stock rectangular ones I got for free from Westin when I bought the bar. The install was very easy to walkthrough for both the bar and the lights. I am using the switch that came with the lights to turn them on and off, I don't have them tied into the highbeams. But I will say that I am looking to upgrade the lights on the bar for some better ones since the ones from Weston are not that great. Overall I am very happy with it.

I've got the black one on my 09 Sport (silver), and it looks great. I get a lot of comments on it. I've also got the black GoRhino side steps. I highly recommend those as well.

Alright here it is. Painted black and installed 2 6" Hid offroad lights (these things are crazy bright). I love this bullbar and everything is what i expected. The only thing is that the bumber gets scratched very easily, so i can see myself taking it off in 3 years and painting it again, but thats pretty much like everything else. Here are some pics, if anyone has questions feel free to ask.

There is one bumber which i thought was really nice was the Black Horse Bullbar, but i bought the westin before i heard of the black horse.
