Default 95-97 Brush Guard

Hey guys, so I've been debating doing a brush guard and a safari rack on my blazer. I have found a rack I really like, but I havn't found a brush guard that looks good on my 97 4dr blazer. All the ones I have found look awkward and don't match the curves of the truck.

If anyone has any idea of where to find a nice lookin' brush guard, lemme know. Color/finish don't matter, as I will just paint it black anyway.

Thanks guys.

not off hand youll have to do ur own homework on that one, but check out ebay or craigslist and maybe even a junkyard and you might get lucky to find one nice and cheap otherwise just check out a few offroad websites

they might mount the same (im not 100% on that) but the 97 and 98+ front ends are different. 98 and newer front look like the blazer at the top of the forum page and the 97 front end has the sqaure headlights. do a quick google search and youll get a better idea of wat im talking about.

I know what the front ends look like, I've owned both lol. What im thinking however is that they mount differently. If they mount differently then I would rather not bother trying to fab something to make it work, as I rarely have the time or patience.

Even if you fabbed it up, it wouldn't look right.. There's a reason it's a 95-97 not a 95+.
