Default What's your goal?

If you want shiney... Bring it to a body shop and have them paint it and use extra clear coat. If you want textured have it bedlined by a shop, don't do it your self with a roller. Depending on the color of your jeep I'd go black paint with extra clear to keep that factory look. Good luck.

Get it line-x'd and be done with it. It'll stand up to a ton of abuse and look good for a long time. There's a few people that have had their bumpers done this way just search around to see what it'll look like. Good luck and post pics when it's all done.
