A modified classic grille guard is configured with modularity, which may include, for example, seven distinct pieces instead of the conventional three. The middle portion of the grille guard is completely modular in that one or more crossbars are now detached from the opposing left and right side upright members. In the present scenario, the right and left brush guards are still one piece, but in other implementations, the brush guards could likewise be modular—i.e., their brush bars may be detached from their upright bars. The crossbars each attach to upright bars on each end of the crossbar, and in turn, the brush guards attach to the sides of the upright bar opposite the crossbars. Separation and modularity of these components reduce the structure's occupied space for packaging, storage, and transportation, thereby reducing backend costs.
