So I finally decided and went with the PSC Brawler Lite! I'm really excited about it and it should be here Friday. I've always liked it, plus I couldn't find a mid or full width that I really really liked. Plus, the price was right. And free shipping? Can't beat it.

Now two questions. One, as for a finish, should I go with a powder coat or line-x? There's a line-x shop not too far from me with decent prices I believe.

Second question - I do not have fog lights on my rig now but I do want to get some since the bumper allows them. What are good aftermarket fog lights that are easy to install and give off a good light?

Thanks for all the responses and pictures!!

 

Congrats on your choice. You will like it.

As for a coating. There are two routes this conversation will go so you need to decide. Is the bumper going to get beat up? If it will that should help you decide. Powder coating is pretty durable but once it is scratched you can't really touch it up without the work being noticeable. On the other hand a lot of guys use bed liner so they can just sand it and respray.

I powder coated everything because I like the look better. I will deal with the scratches when the time comes.

 

powder coat is the best way to go IMO. I also powder coat everything, you can line x it but you might need to reboar the holes for the winch and d rings in order to accomodate the line x. on another note some guys that powder coat have other options to make the powder coat much stronger and resistant to scratches/ nicks (zinc enriched is one)

 

I went with an ACE bumper. Never been happier, stubby all the way

 

I went stubby.....I prefer the look and I like the idea of better approach angles.
