Rugged Ridge 11230.21 Elite Euro Guard Kit, Headlight, Black; 18-Current Jeep Wrangler / 20-Current Gladiator

Installing it was a breeze, and it turned out beautifully. It's made of aluminum (rather than steel) and has a hard black finish. It has a slightly rough texture to it. It appears to be in excellent condition once more. It's been meticulously designed. I was worried that it would come into direct contact with the headlight lens and collect dirt, but this is not the case. As you can see in the photos, there is an air gap between the guard and the lens (which is most likely poly-carbonate). (carbon dioxide). I'm not sold on the utility aspect, and I'm not sure it'll actually protect the lens from damage, given that it's already recessed into the grill. The guards will probably have little impact if something damages the grill to the point where the headlights are no longer recessed; it does appear to come from the factory this way, so A on appearance (when parked and someone looks at it closely). Simply reuse the factory bolts, as suggested by other reviewers. They're long enough and easier to secure with a socket and ratchet than the supplied button head screws (which require an allen wrench or hex driver), and they appear to be of good quality (stainless steel). Overall, I'm satisfied with the installed product's fit and finish.

It is very simple to set up. My 2019 JL Sahara was a perfect fit.

The use of headlight guards is highly recommended. They have a nice appearance and appear to be long-lasting. However, the hex bolts that come with them are junk, so I replaced them with factory headlight bolts.

As others have said, it's a simple installation:br>br>1) it fits against the outer ring of the plastic headlight lens. It's possible that it will cause damage to the factory part; however, only time will tell. 2) It IS off-kilter. br>br>3) The headlight is in the center. It's hard to take your eyes away from it. I might get over it with time. br>br>3) Cleaning bugs off the lens will be difficult. 4) It may appear to be adequate, but it will not protect the lens from rocks. br>br>I gave it three stars because I didn't feel great after installing it, but I was drawn in by the different look!.

The reason for the four stars is that I believe it is overpriced, and it appears to be slightly slanted when installed. I'm not sure if it's just my vision or what. Examine the images for yourself to determine whether or not my assessment is correct.

Installing it was a breeze. Metal of excellent quality. The instructions are fairly straightforward and easy to understand. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> Installed on Saturday, drove a little on Monday and Tuesday, removed the grill to install LED headlights, and one of the screws had come out halfway. These nuts and bolts were extremely tight. My husband and I double-checked that everything was in place behind us. In a few days, I'll check again. These will be returned if a screw is loose.

It was simple to set up; just follow the instructions in the video. I re- Because the factory screws were just as long as the ones provided, I used them instead of the ones provided. Because the guard is metal, but the headlight assembly it's attached to is plastic, be careful not to overtighten the screws. The final product is beautiful, and the guards are well-made to offer adequate protection.
