So, I have Rock Lizard building a new rear bumper for me (Misc others items too) and thought I would get you fine fellars opinion on paint. I once thought about powder coating, but its too expensive and I want the ability to touch it up at times.
Are there any recommendations as far as paint? I thought I would just rattle can it, but there are so many options I thought I would ask about. Thanks

Rustolem hammered spray paint works well with a good primer. Has your items been shipped? Theres a long long wait for bumpers thru RL.

Nope, not shipped yet, but ordered in October. Will probably ship over the next few months. I have to say to whom ever reads this post, Martin at Rock Lizard has been the BEST to work with. I highly recommend him!

RL bumpers are awsome, but im gonna wait and see how fast his production is once the new magement comes in. I like his better than the arb but i just cant wait over half the year for a bumper, alot can happen in that time.

What he should offer is a kit, pre-cut pieces that we can weld together, cut on shipping. I love to weld, actually cert, but dont weld full time, hate to be told what to weld. I dont have any time to be designing a bumper.

X2. Would be a cost savings to the DIY folks like us. Plus I think the RL looks better too. My :2cents:
