It does look bead blasted but it is powder coated. I modded mine for KDSS and it flaked off, not very good if any prep before they powder coated it. The shop I went to was not impressed either.
I had mine and my full RCI aluminum skid plates powder coated gunmetal with a slight texture, to mellow the look, prevent oxidation, and aluminum to steel reactions. If they get scratched and gouged now no biggie since they are aluminum.
Aluminum
Bead blast, Chemical etch, then powder coat. All about the prep.
Steel I would add a zinc primer before powder coating.
I did think about bead blasting them all and doing a clear powder coat. I think that would be a great option as well.
Forgot to add price. I paid $150 for the TRD skid and all the RCI skids including the fuel tank skid.
