Refinished Bumper and Mounted CB

Post by derrrrr456 » May 31st, 2013, 9:42 am

So over the past few days of tinkering, I refinished the bumper on my Sahara, armor-alled the hell out of the fog lights, and mounted the CB Ball mount and antenna. I have yet to get a tie down, does anyone know anything to use temporarily? I would like to ride with the antenna attached, but i don't want to get zapped by a power line or hit every tree in the county.
It looks soooooo much better.

That bumper looks absolutely fantastic, it's a massive improvement. What did you use?

Thanks man! I stripped it to bare metal and then painted it with Rust-Oleum Trim and Bumper paint. Its about 7 bucks at auto zone.

Nice!

Rust-Oleum makes a paint with a built in rust converter that would do those tow hooks nicely. I used it on my trailer frame a year ago and so far nothing has come through.
