    @Lux O yeah I am pulling the trigger on that bumper with the light bar. Its much more low profile and looks better. Thanks A lot. Hopefully I get it done before the year ends.

    I just Plasti-Dipped mine, used maybe two cans at most. it's holding up surprisingly well after 18 months of bugs and highway rocks. even goes thru the car wash without problems :D
