    Best use for safari bar?

    I took the safari style Westin push bar and the 2 lights off the front of my VX first thing after getting home last weekend. Though it's probably a very usefull thing for someone else, it's not what I wanted.

    So I found something better to do with it other than hang off the front of my truck...

    I felt like my wife's car could use some extra front end collision insurance.

    You know, I was in Australia a few times, you wouldn't believe the cars with brush guards on the front, I guess for kangaroos. Everything from Focuses to minivans. Fit it tight it enough, I would give it two thumbs up, but I guess my bumper styling opinions don't carry much weight, just ask Bart or Justin.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    Talking That reminds me of a line in Jurasic Park

    "Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, (put a brush guard on a Saturn)they didn't stop to think if they should"(put a brush guard on a Saturn)

    Ha! I don't think I'd ever actually put it on there, at least not any time soon. The car is just about at the end of it's life span and she is looking for something else to own as soon as this ting dies. BUT if for some reason I ever needed to drive her car myself and I still own this bar, bet your arses I will find a way to get it on there!

    Would make for an interesting spoiler as well, kind of a rugged, in your face ricer, look
