A sport/non-sport distinction will help you get answers a little quicker, as will both a link to the brush guard you want or a picture of it and what skills you have(metal work,welding&such).

ill stay tuned in, I'm curious myself.I've never put one of those on.

What are you having trouble with? Bracket mounting location? Clearance issues (bumper-brush guard)? I have a non sport brush guard on my sport bumper but it did require cutting the plastic cover on the bumper to make it happen. Fortunately, those bumpers came with manufacturers marks that lay out where the tow hook access would have been, so I used those marks as a template for my cuts. The brackets took some figuring but eventually I got it right. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1421486820.825833.jpg

if your a non-sport just line up the brush guard where you want it, and fab up some brackets. ive seen guys use their tow hooks for mounting locations otherwise just find a sturdy place to weld or bolt brackets...
