Default Brawler lite front bumper

Ok just ordered my front bumper finally and thinking about paint options. I'm thinking about doing several layers of clear coat. Anyone tried this? Don't live in an area that I have to worry about rust and could touch it up after hitting the trails. Thoughts???

It's worth the little extra to powder coat and be done. Unless you like touching up on a regular basis.

That's what I'm leaning towards. Don't care about the cost. So is powder coating gonna hold up better than rhino liner?

Clear coat was a thought to be different, but might just do something with the PS logo. Thinking about a red light tied into my running lights.

Ok, so the bumper showed up today and looks bad ass! I'm really thinking about powder coating it silver or metallic. I'm gonna put it on first and see what it looks like. Most of my stickers are silver including my PS hood decal. The only thing I'm worried about is I still have black cut fenders. What do you guys think?
