Default AEV front bumper and LOD rear??

I have an AEV front bumper and I want a rear bumper that I can eventually put a rack and gas cans on for long trips. I also plan on adding the Poision Spyder brawler knocker sliders. Would this look wiered like a franken jeep or not??

The powder coatings won't match, but the LOD should look OK. Why are you not choosing to go with the AEV rear bumper/carrier?

Ive been looking at the pure jeep rear tire carrier/ can carrier. They have that shorty rear bumper and it looks pretty dam nice, and has a bunch of different set up's for the can and storage rack. Not to mention the front bumpers are bitchin as well. Ive also changed my mind a 100 times at which one i want...OR-Fab, Lod, Pure Jeep, Rugged Ridge their are toooo many choices, guess that makes it fun to pick.

I have the LOD rear with jeep can holders and rack and love the set up. The back up lights are a great asset at night. I have had it on for tow seasons now and it is still as good as new. The finish matches the fender flairs. I also have the Poison Spyder sliders and rocker knockers. I like the look of the package. Just my opinion.

How well did the powder coating match between the Poison Spyder stuff and the LoD bumper?

I want to be able to put a cargo rack and cans on the carrier. Aev doesn't offer those options.

I'm not to worried about the powder coating matching. I got the AEV on a scratch and dent sale and rattle can bed lined it myself. I plan on doing that with the rock rails also. I guess I cold spray the LOD bumper to match if it looked that wiered.
