Both my bumpers are painted with the rustoleum hammered finish paint and it's actually fairly durable. Plus with the hammered finish it covers up some minor imperfections... not that I built my bumpers with imperfections

I actually owe my friend a bumper. A rear bumper on a Nissian actually. Lol.
But he's in Hawaii for a month and then being deployed to Japan. So i've got a little while to get that to him.

You should make the angled sections shorter and have the front sitting closer to the truck. OR put some diamond plate or something on the top.

What else are you doing to it?
