Ebay Bull Bar?

I've been considering this bull bar from ebay:

Does anyone have any experience with it or any pics? Any help greatly appreciated!

I realize this thread has been sitting here for a while, but I saw these too and was wondering if anybody actually bought one. I found a guy on CL selling a Westin w/ 2 lights for $100, not actually sure why I need it though.....

It's the same brand as my brush guard (I didn't buy it through eBay however). So far I've had the brush guard on for about 6 months and I have no complaints.

I bought a Hunter brand, similar to the one on ebay from Truckgeardirect.com. I installed it today. The product is decent but the installation instructions were a major P.I.T.A. The hand done drawing didn't even show the correct parts. I took off the tow hooks as some on the forum suggested but it turns out you don't have to. Taking off the tow hooks took me about 4 hours of frustration. Once I got the brackets figured out, the actual installation took about an hour. I'll post some pics in the morning so if someone buys the same product, they can see how the brackets line up to hold the bull bar.

I bought it primarily to mount the fog lights. The bull bar kit was only $115. The front of the B4000 was very plain looking and the bar dressed it up some INHO.

I just bought a Westin safari light bar, with the mounting kit for an 07 ranger of CL for $60.. except it has no instructions and its not extremely obvious how the hell this thing mounts. I know where it attaches to the frame, but it seems like there are more pieces than I can puzzle together. Anybody got some instructions for one of these? The Westin website is zero help...
