    Go to my flickr account to see a few more pics. I've been cleaning up the dead spots in the videos, so it is in the works.

    I live in Gadsden and I'm almost positive it was closed down last year, I could very well be wrong though. It'd be worth it to find out

    To be honest, If you don't mind a little work. If it comes primed then I would use the Duplicolor Spray on bedliner! It's not too much texture and our of the 2 diferent types of "Bedliner" I have on my truck I am the most happy with its performance! You hit a rock, REGARDLESS of what kind of bedliner you have on it or powder coating, it will chip off! I have hit trees and stuff with my front bumper and it deflect with the best of them! The one thing I LOVE about the Duplicolor is there is NO sun damage or fading AT ALL! And if you do get a small chip or scratch, the Rustoleum "Textured" Black paint is a PERFECT match! Ask me how I know!? HAHA!

    That's a great looking bumper dude! Go for it!

    Interesting. I did redo my sliders this past weekend with the rustoleum bed coating, and I was pretty happy with it. I don't know how different it is from duplicolor.

    I may still do powdercoat anyway though, considering I don't intend to hit stuff with my bumper as much as my sliders...

    Oh and he does ship it primed.

    I guess I mean I don't wheel that much, and when I have, I haven't hit my bumper.

    I have to check my rear bumper out. I got it out of alignment by about 1/2" where it fits to the side fenders while at Markita and put a few scratch marks in it on the passenger side corner doing some extra sexy flexing on my limo. Getting time for a high clearance rear.

    I also heard it was closed down. I'd like to check it out and see if it is for sure.

    Speaking of folks not posting pics. Did I miss it or did you ever post pics of your cutting / bending / hammering to get the 35's on? Just curious what all you did vs. how Parker's experience was.
