Looks good!

The grille guard seems to sit too low.

Truck is looking good!

You might have to customize your grille guard mounts in order for it to sit higher.

Im not sure how they are setup and how they mount, but you might be able to drill more holes further down on the grille guard? Or weld some more mounts on it.

Looks great man, chop the guard and re-weld its position or weld on different brackets

That's likely the best way to go... just cut 3" out of the brackets and it should sit back up where it was before!
