You know what I never liked about any type of cladding protection? You drill wholes, then you install parallel plate, then water, dirt, you name it, gets in between and stays there, then before you know it the wholes you drilled start to rust.

I have the SB cladding and I really can't say anything to bad about them after having them for a couple years , the biggest compliant was the install directions bad , wrong size bolts

Poison Spyder Body Armor! Get there Rubber Body Armor Liners so WHEN you get dirt and tiny rocks behind it. It doesn't scratch the $h!t out of your paint.
Doesn't the current Smittybilt armor cladding coming in 3 pieces per side? It looks like a royal pain in the a$$ to install and have it all line up together and look right.

Get aluminum, not steel and paint it, not plasti dip. Paint all the holes you drill. Skip the rubber padding, you're about to drill 30 holes in the body of your jeep do you really care if you scratch underneath? Silicone along the top seam.
