before and after ARB bumper
i picked up an ARB bumper from a guy off craigslist a couple days ago and decided to clean it up and re-paint it. it was in decent condition with some dents and scratches. i think i did a pretty good job at reconditioning it. i attached a before and after of the bumper so you all can see.

yeah i believe the sun is making it look a little green. it is a semi flat black. i got it for about $300 so i think i got a pretty good deal. i will be putting it on my jeep when i put my lift kit on it, which will hopefully be in the next week or so. i also got a rear tomken bumper which needs a little work also, so i will keep you all posted on that.

I have the same one and love it. I know another guy with a cherokee that has it also. He got in a head on collision with a dodge ram. The dodge was totalled and had to be put on a flat bed tow truck. The jeep drove home.

yeah i used a rattle can unfortunately. i was planning on using a sprayer but got lazy and took the easy way out. i sanded the hell out of it then i put on a coat of gray rustoleum primer. for the second coat i used an extra can of white bobcat paint to "toughen" up the paint. then i continued to sand a little more then i put the final flat black rustoleum coat on it. it took a little bit of time but it was worth it.

) with an almost vinyl texture that is really thick and protective. Plus it's like three bucks or so a can to touch up the whole thing as needed
