Default My awesome deal.

So a couple days ago I found an amazing deal on craigslist and had to follow through to make sure it was real. The guy was selling a land rover metal brush guard (with lights, headlight shields, and a license plate piece) for only $150.
the pieces are overall great shape minus some pealing paint. So of course I bought it. When I handed him the money he handed me the metal tail light covers completely free.



the second headlight cover is not pictured because I left it in my truck.

My question to all of you is what was all of this actually worth?

Careful when you mount it, be sure it clears before you slam the hood (been there, got the T shirt).

Nice score. Looks like your missing one of the headlight covers. You can take it and have it sanded and powder coated probably fairly inexpensively. Just a side note, that brush bar is not all that stout, so don't go thinking you can push something with it.

The brush bar used to retail around $1000.

Rear lamp guards are around $200 to $300 per set.

Great find!

Yeah I'm not trying to destroy my hood any time soon.

And right under the picture I mention that the other headlight guard is not pictured because it is in my truck still.

Wow... That is definitely a pretty penny. Any one know how much these go for used? I tried to look up some but eBay isn't the most reliable source for actual pricing details.

Are those LR lights or aftermarket?

What do you mean?

Are you talking about the fog lights. If so they are not LR. They are "Super 4x4"
