Any bull bars out there which look as good as the westin and mount in a way that doesn't get rid of you tow hooks?

Not that I'm aware of. I think all the bull bars have to get rid of the tow hooks. I went through this about a year ago and didn't go with the bull bar just for that reason. I instead ended up going with a GORHINO Sumantra 3000 grill guard and it didn't touch the tow hooks at all. Pics in garage. I have seen people do some funky stuff with the bull bars by welding it on and then welding the tow hooks back on some how. Just how bad do you want it? For me, not that bad.

I am gonna have to agree with DUG71 on that one...aside from welding...I don't think so...I have a smitty built bumper guard that I think looks pretty good and it doesn't touch the tow hooks....ok well it touches them...but they stay in place and remain functional
