Just going to spray paint it black. Eventually I will make side steps/ rocker gaurds. I want to Powdercoat or Line-X everything at one time.

Finished for now. I have had some time to drive the Jeep a few times with the bumper, and no rattles
Tried to take some pictures, sun was reflecting on the paint a lot.
I have a lot of experience with the brand of paint I used. It will go from gloss to semi-gloss after a month or so of sun exposure. The plan is to Line-x or some brand of bed liner in the future. I am fairly happy with the results.
