Superman Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I added a chrome Bull Bar to the front of my 2010 Edge over the weekend. This is an Aries ARS3502 Bull Bar that I got online for about $200. It came complete with all mounting hardware and installation instruction and took about 1-1/2 hours to install. It was VERY easy to install. The installation instructions said to remove the lower air dam but I wanted it on still so I left it on and just used a hacksaw to cut two small slits in the plastic where the mounting brackets went through.

Edgieguy Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Nice job! Goes well with the chrome front. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford_Fan Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Nice job! Goes well with the chrome front. I agree, it looks great! I might get one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I had seen a picture online of one when I was thinking about it and really liked it. I agree, I think it really brings out the chrome grill. Ford_Fan, if you decide to get one, don't follow the instructions that say to take off the lower air dam. Just cut slits in it so that you can maintain the overall look of your front end. Also, I drove my front end up on ramps to install it. Made it A LOT easier so I could get underneath easily.

Superman Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 Guerro - I'll try & upload some larger files tomorrow if I can but that is the size the site would let me upload (150 pixels or something like that).

Maybe you ought to think about using a different slang abbreviation, or actually typing it out. Maybe you should change your screen name from Superman, which by the way is brilliantly original, to Capt Anal as it seems to be a better fit. You obviously have taken offense to my dislike for your modification when it wasn't intended to offend you. You posted the pictures of what you had done on the internet for the whole world to see so one assumes that you are looking for feedback on your efforts yet it seems that you only want to hear the "wow man that looks cool" ones. The world isn't all puppy dogs and kittens and you can't always hit a home run when up to bat so lighten up Francis... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guerro Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Guerro, here are some larger photos. LOL I guess there is no happy medium or else I don't know how to shrink those down. I just couldn't figure out what that last photo was and now I see it is the underside where you mounted the bar. Is the bar functional in any way or purely cosmetic?
