So I debated this one for quite awhile and I'm still not sold on the "without", so I'll ask your opinion.

Looks better with it on. It breaks up the front end a little.

I'm not a big fan of bug guards. However I don't think it looks that bad.
If you're just looking to break up all that yellow, how about painting the grill surround
b lack to match the side of the truck. Just a thought.

Without. I hate those things.

Bug guards to trucks are ugly wings to Hondas.

If you think it's too much yellow up front, then do the headlight mod FTMFW.

Brenda I'm with you... w/ the FX4 package the bug guard looks ok... I agree that the front needs to be broken up... bottom line is it's up to you...
