Started out with a weld-it-yourself kit from iron scorpion and then made a custom brush guard.
I wanted a good approach angle so I made it fit as tight to the body as I could.

Check out the pics

Thanks Chris and Dern! I really like JCR's stuff good quality and designs, I went with this one for the experience of fabbing. I love to do stuff that is different, looks awesome, but IT HAS TO FUNCTION in real world situations.

I will have to post up my roof rack build as well. Oh BTW i may be selling my old rack with stock crossbars in the near future. Just a heads up.
