Brushgaurds are not designed to take heavy hits and will bend inward upon impact of something the size of a deer at driving speeds. Might want to look into haveing something a bit sturdier fabricated.

My VX was run into a wall by a tech early this year and I had Tone's brushguard mounted. I sustained more damage because of it, since it folded down into the hood and around the front fenders. Just know that there is a big difference between a brushguard for SHOW and one that is FUNCTIONAL. I think the majority of them on the market are for SHOW, so watch what you buy.
