Default Anyone with Body-Colored Bumpers? Show Em'
I'm looking at the Expedition One Basic DX bumper and am wondering how it would look if I painted it to match the Jeep instead of going with the powder coat in black.

Let's see them!

I dont hate the look, but it would likely get pretty beaten up.
This is from the ARB catalogue.

I think it only looks good with certain colors and definitely not with the stock bumper

I think that looks sharp! I'm easier on front bumpers than rear anyway. I also like the look of the ARB. That's where I got the idea in the first place.

Just remember when it's time to touch up any off road rashes that may accure. Anything other than Black is very hard to maintain.
