Question Boondock Bumpers

Hello all,


I am thinking of dropping some 'mad money' on a set of heavy duty bumpers for my '03 F250. I see that the Boondock bumpers are pretty low cost, relative to the other vendors. I like the styling and have only one concern. I will have to drill the rear bumper out for my backup sensors. That means the powdercoat will be left exposed at the holes. I suppose you could paint the bare steel where the holes are drilled, but is this going to be a spot for rust over the years? I am worried that the steel will rust under the powdercoat over time. One thing I can say about my stock chrome bumpers is they are entirely free of rust...


Have any of you have installed the Boondock's, and if so how do you like them?


Doug
