I am running one of the highway products headache racks. The guardian open mesh with lights. Had it about two years now. So far so good. Really like it. No it wasn’t as cheap as some of the others out there for sure, however it also has more style than many. Though that is surely personal preference. It fits my truck really well, matches the lines pretty good, doesn’t make noise like some I have ridden with.
on my 01 I had a b&w headache rack that I really liked. Had it for 15 years, it was showing its age and I transferred it to my 17 it fit and worked but the lines didn’t match as well as they did on the 01. When I moved it over I had it sandblasted and repowdercoated. it started rusting again fairly quickly so either a poor prep and or poor powder coat job. So when I sold the 17 it went with it and got the 22 that’s when I got the hpi rack and have been pleased with it.
