Thanks for the pic.
I figure It doesnt matter id its Line X, Herculiner, Hppo liner, or what ever. If I bump a rock or tree, its gonna leave a mark/scratch.
If I have the ability to touch it up myself, it wil always look good.
My only other concern is the UV and environmental wear and tear that may turn the surface to crap over time.
Then again, a bit of time and effort should restore its appearance.
My plan is to do this to a brand new ARB thats incoming....My old ARB on the TJ lasted fine,
but the finish never really matched anything else and always seemd out of place.

Leave it bare and let it rust. There ain't nuthin tougher than a good thick coat of rust. What is it....3/16" or 1/4"? It'll never rust through in your lifetime. Yeah, I vote rust. Totally maintainance free.

bumper coating
I had my ARB front bumper coated in LineX and I like it very well. Cost $135, well worth it for me. My first experience , but this stuff is reay tough.

That may be! However, who's currency is used the WORLD over as measurement and stability!!! The British Pound is worth double the US Dollar, but it still is not the rule of measure either. If the US Dollar continues to slide...believe me your aaaaaa ummm "Dollar" will slide too!
You know, I get sick of every other country being jealous of the US!
