How much are you looking to spend? Where have you looked?

Finding used ones is pretty easy. I bought a factory brush guard for my '96 DI about 5 years ago off of eBay, freight shipped to me from Michigan to Tennessee for under $400.

Check the classified's on this forum, junkyards, and Craigslist as well.

I want to spend around $200, but I think that price range is out of the question. I didnt realize how expensive parts for these vehicles are...

If you're hoping for $200, expect to get one that is a little bent or rusted. But if you're patient, you should be able to at least find something. Good luck

Save your money cause a used on for $200 is just a rusted paper weight.

Most likely. I searched for months before I finally found one on Craigslist in Iowa for $150. The seller didn't know what he should have been asking. I snatched it immediately. It had one small dent, and some of the powder coating was flaking off. I had it sandblasted, the dent filled (welded), and powder coated. Total price for it including purchase and overhaul was about $400

But, I now have a brush guard that is like new.

That's the way to go if you can take your time.
