Default Looking for a Bull Bar!

Hey so I'm looking for a bull bar (correct name?) for my 1998 zr2 blazer. I'd like it to be black finish with a shape similar to what's illustrated below:



Anybody know any good ones that would fit my application? And sorry about the extremely bad picture. Microsoft Paint sucks. LOL

Ya that's exactly what I'm looking for. Only problem is that only ships to USA. I live in Canada... I'd like to find one I could order at an auto parts store or something rather than over the Internet... Thanks anyway

I've tried googling a lot. "Be the first to review this item" doesnt really help me that much.

Anyone else have any input? One candidate I found was the Westin safari one. Any experiences?

Pretty much all the Bull Bar sites that i found are trust worthy. IMO i dont like the look of the Westin Safari one with its 2" tubing. and i think the westin's are way overpriced, but if you like that look then go for it. i think one other member has the Westin in black on here. if i can find a picture of it then i will post it

Edit: ok i found it ill attach it

Ya that looks alright, but I would like a few more options. What other bull bars from other commercially available brands are there?

to 97 cherryblazer..how bad was that install? i have a 95 of the same body style and can't find a bull bar that fits it anywhere. and did you intentionally put it so low? because i would like mine to be in the tow loop area

I could have put it about an inch higher, and theres a how-to in my sig for making it fit. If you have questions about it ask them on there so everyone else can see, and so we dont hijack this thread

Heres another link How-To: 95-97 Bull Bar

Ever seen one on a 2wd? I thin they look great but worried about looking out of place on 2wd.
