Pics of your painted bumpers

Looking for pics of your painted bumpers. Ive heard of people using Line X, or Rhino Liner. Any info would be appreciated and definitely pictures.

Ive also looked into "Plasti-Dip" but that doesn't seem like it would be the best option for an off roading vehicle that gets washed with a pressure washer almost daily...

I am a painter by trade, used a good oil based paint rolled on. Oil based & brushed tow hooks as well. Has lasted nicely.

This Rav4 ran a red light and got in my way. One internal fog light housing was bent when it shifted over and hit the frame otherwise looks perfect. I got a brand new replacement bumper so I put this one on my F250. My Excursion in this pic had to go on the frame rack for some minor tweaking. The Rav got stuck on the shackle mounts and that's was caused the damage. I love this bumper. Cheap insurance.

You guys must have known I was going to come on this thread.. Our 2002 Ford F250 4x4 crew cab has a 2005 front grill and bumper and it is painted to match the color scheme black and white. Here's some pics of the front. The last owner was a profesional painter and painted it like this.
Trav


and the rear of both our 1986 F150 which isn't painted and our 2002 F250 which is painted only black.

I can't remember, I think I may have paid the guy $250 cash for the front and rear bumpers, I had upgraded my rear to the 08 and up at the same time, here is a picture of it.

Do u have reverse sensors? If you do I think that the only major thing. Don't quote me on that though.
