I want a proper grill guard for the Model Y

[Jigglypuff]

I know Tsportline has a brush guard, but it's 20 lbs, doesn't go up nearly high enough, doesn't cover quite the width it should, wouldn't do squat versus a deer, and has a bit of a janky method of attachment.

No, I want something heavier duty. Any ideas for companies that might supply one? Otherwise, I'm thinking I'll just go to a local metal fabricator/welder and have them put something together to my specs. Use the tow hook spot. Weld in another tow hook spot on the opposite side. Cut bigger holes in the bumper. Bolt in some square tubing or brackets coming out. And go on from there. That would keep the crash absorbtion and boost

Protection from deer strikes mostly provided by your insurance company.

Bolting on something may defeat your air bags and crash crumple zones.

Thanks for the lesson, but that's not what I asked about.

Seems more like good advice than a “lesson.”

So something like this then?

Yes, but lighter, and with more spikes for bicyclists.
