Default Brush guard question

I got a brush guard that I am going to try and modify to fit my 2001 blazer. The guy I got it from said it came off a small truck but he didn't know what kind. I test fit it on my 2001 and it looked somewhat ok, not much modifying just the mounts. THEN I set it on front of my 1991 blazer and it was almost a perfect fit! Now I don't know if I want to still modify it for the 2001 or save it for when I get the 91 going. Which one do you think it fits better? look at the contour of the bumpers with the brackets and the headlights alinging with opening of guard.
TEST FIT TO 2001




TEST FIT TO 91 almost a perfect fit!

It looks like it would be easier to mount it to the 91, but if you use you 01 more then you would probably want it on there.
Looks like it will work on both though, so it's really a matter of what one you want it on more.

The 01 is my daily driver, the 91 is a project I'm working on (when it gets warm enough outside to work on it!)

Well finally got around to making some mounting brackets for my brushguard. Got both mounts made and the right side mount bolted to the frame during my lunch break. Maybe I can get the other one mounted tonight and get the guard bolted on tomorrow.

I put it on the '01 for now. Mounted it so I can take it off and use it on the '91. I like it so I guess that's what important.
