Been researching bumpers preparing for my new JL. One absolute requirement I have is for something with a finish that holds up well on salty winter roads. When I got my JK, the bumpers went from brand new looking to absolute crap in one winter. I replaced them with SmittyBilt XRC Gen2s which held up pretty well.
I may get the XRC Gen2s again, but found a couple others that intrigued me. Wondering if anyone has experience with the Paramount Automotive Guardian bumper or the Rugged Ridge Venator bumpers. Looks like they both have 5 year warrantees on the finish.
Does their powder coating hold up well in salty winter conditions? Any other feedback, positive or negative on either of these?
