Finally got over there on my way to work yesterday. Now I have a couple of weeks to settle on suspension, winch, and toggle switch options. Of course C4 switching up their winch offerings has me wondering if Smittybilt is still the way to go. What did everyone here do?
I have MGM, but I had been considering the same idea. I was considering clear coat just to highlight the workmanship, the industrial character, etc. Something about the rainbow of colours that the heat leaves behind appeals to me. Anyway, while I ultiamtely decided that it wouldn't look good...
Bumper arrives tomorrow! Then off to Commerce City for the coating. Q, thanks for posting the pictures of your results from the shop. Looks really good even though you had to switch horses mid-stream after the fender bender. Can't wait to see mine on my truck too!
Lookin' good man. So you're definitely digging the light textured finish now that you've seen it on your gear? Seems like it should match the black stock trim really well. And thanks for the price negotiations on our behalf. Not having to coordinate delivery and drop off will definitely make...
I’m leaning towards textured as well. Been looking closer at every rig I see to get a sense of how things look in the real world. Guessing texture will give more of a matte look, match other stuff, and hide scuffs better than any kind of gloss or flat black.
Also, flexible on timing, assuming...
Yup, I was thinking basic flat or matte black as well. Mine is MGM, so plenty of other flat black bits to blend it in with. But, having a look at the other options seems sensible since we have time.
