Best Bush Bar for 1500?

[marko]

I'm looking for a new grille guard/bush bar for my truck. I have narrowed it down to two choices, one being the Westin the other the Force Assault Bar. I'd like it in stainless steel.

 

I'd like to mount a couple of auxiliary lights on it also.

 

I'd be grateful for everyone's advice, and is it true you lose your tow hooks if you put one of these on?

 

Thanks guys,

I don't own what you are looking for, but I have a manik guard in black. Very well built and it has survived 5 Illinois winters and we spare no salt here either. I have zero rust on mine. I had the option of turning my tow hooks the other direction when mounting mine, but I didn't.

I also have a manik, i bought it second hand and it is holding up great
