I used to have a low profile Waag on mine and it just bolted to the tow hooks. I can't say for any of the others but the stock one is the only one I've seen. When looking around, see if they have a .pdf of the installation instructions available on the website of the one you're looking at.
yeah i was looing at the lower waag one. i like that also. how come you took it off?

Personal preference. In Ohio we have to run a front license plate and the plate wasn't centered vertically in the front runner. Drove me nuts every time I looked at it. It can be found running around WV on a white avy now. On the front of a 2500 the license plate area on the bumper sits lower and centers it real nice.

Yeah, you have to drill a couple of 2" holes in the plastic.

 Do ya really need 2 inch holes?? that would seem to be awfully big...

There's a pretty big bar that has to go through those holes. I've seen a memeber that took his off and just replaced it with a custom curved bar to fill those holes. I'll see if I can find a pix from a GTG.

Which one did you bid on? I'll have to try to dig up the mounting procedure if its the big GM bull bar.

The OEM one on ebay for 100$ I emailed the seller n asked if its got ant noticeable scratches or dents he said no its almost new but eBay wouldn't let him list it any other way. I also asked him where it mounts up to n why he won't be sending the bolts
