Default Which rock skins to go with?

I'm selling my SRC rocker guards and was wondering if I should go with EVO or Poison Spyder rock skins instead.



Poison Spyders price is about $185 and EVO is about $215. The only difference is PS comes bare while EVO is powdercoated. If I get the PS I will have to powdercoat myself which I don't really want to do.

Anybody have these? I trust that both of these are made awesome because they are both made from good companies so I'm just wondering if anyone has any opinions.

Thanks in advance.

I have the evo ones, but i would think those and Poison Spyder's ones are pretty much the same.

I have a friend that has the PS and they are bad ass. If you get the raw metal you can always powder coat them in a color of your choice to make them that much more custom. But if you want black I would go with the ones that are already done.

we run EVO rock skins and their rocker guards and, not only do they do an excellent job of taking a big hit without bending, they look awesome too...





we live in socal so rust is never much of an issue for us and so, we have no problems. i would think if you applied silicon to the skins, you could help prevent salt from being an issue.
