Brand: Motobilt
Very simple steel bumper with welded d-rings welded. I replaced my Rubicon's plastic bumper and opted to go without spare because I previously installed AAL's Spare Tire Delete Kit.
The bumper came bare metal so I spray painted starting with (1) Rust-oleum Self Etching Primer and (2) Rust-oleum Textured Black. Before you start painting, make sure to use fine sanding paper or a scuff pad to create a better bond. Also use some type of mild cleaner to remove any particles from the surface. Over sprayed a bit on the driver side but after a few weeks it has settled. Bound to scratch and scuff it anyway so will repaint then.
