JCWhitney Tailight Guards? Anybody have em?

I was surfing the jcwhitney site and come across these light guards

http://www.jcwhitney.com/GARAGE-PRO-...1837_10101.jcw

I was wondering if anyone has put these on their truck (pics would be great).
Is there fitment issues or do they line up fairly well.

And yes i know they don't actually do anything and are just cosmetic

The black ones above look good. But the chrome ones are ugly.

They aren't completely cosmetic, It'd keep a shopping cart from breaking the tail-light

They have pros and cons. You can still break your lights on trails or have the guards snag on something. Same thing in public.

Heck, someone's jacket sleeve caught on my hood deflector and broke it in half.

However, I just like the look of them. Don't think it's something I would spend money on though. Kinda pointless mod.
