My rails and front bumper are matte.
My rear bumper is textured.
The textured looks better, IMNSHO, and more closely matches the Rubi/X fenders.
(the scratch repair with bedliner is a bonus)
I taped off and painted the lower half of my front with bedliner.
The first trip out with the bumper, I wasn't bashful about attacking rocks and walls.
I'm planning to re-cover my rails in bedliner.
They've taken some trail whacks and there are a few spots with surface rust.
(my rails were the original prototypes for LōD JK rails)

LOD finishes
The textured finish matches the fender flairs on my 2008 Rubi. The wait is worth it. I know they seem to be way off on their lead times but the bumpers are totally worth the wait. I have the rear bumper w/tire carrier and rack with jeep can attachments. Good luck and be patient.
