    So im waiting to hear back from my adjuster about my estimate on the bumper and hitch repair. Im fairly confident there is no frame damage so I think im gonna take the cash and buy an All-pro rear bumper with the hidden hitch.

    My question is, should I paint it white to match or paint it black.
    Also should I get the side panels or not.

    Just want everyone opinion.

    Don't get the side panels. They bend to easy if you hit anything and you'll still do damage to your bedside. They are good for keeping mud and small branches away, but that's about it.

    Go black. Color match means you'll never use the bumper. Black can be easily touched up with a rattle can.

    Voted white without sides. I've heard from a couple of members that they aren't too stout.

    Beat me to it.

    This. I do my sliders and my bed rack with Rustoleum bedliner and it comes out great and is so easy and cheap to touch up. Spray it from about 18" to 2' away from the surface you are coating, and you will get a nice textured coat. Too close and it gets glossy and will run.
