Default Got my BA bumper installed

It needed a bit of work, but I knocked off the rust and cleaned it up a bit, then I took it and had it bedlined. It turned out really well.

Here are a few pics. I'll post up some better shots when the weather clears up.

Shot of the Mile Marker winch with the cable removed. I will be getting some synthetic rope to replace the original steel cable.

I bit of a close up, so you can get an idea of the texture on the bumper.

I love the bumper, but really like that color matched grille... Where did you get yours at?? I've been looking for a red one too and no luck!

I took mine to a local shop and had them paint it. Cost me $150.

Very cool!! How long have you had it that way? Any chips where the "chrome" shows thru?
Also, did you spray your stock wheels or did the same painter do those too with powder coating? Your red H3 looks exactly like what I had planed to do to mine!

I've had the grill that way for about 3 years. There are a few chips where you can see chrome, but I have a bottle of touch up paint and I cover them up.

The wheels are OEM tactical wheels and they came powder coated from the factory.
