    Still waiting on the new paint job. Seems like you have a warm reception of the bumper over there!

    Pathrat - Where did you get the flat black rubberized undercoating? Do you know if it chips when hit or does it peel like Linex? I'm thinking of using that stuff on my rock-rails as long as it doesn't peel.

    Advance Auto Parts. My brother was nice enough to send me a gift card for my birthday so as Funrover noted, I went wild with various rattle cans. I have no idea if it chips, have not been in a situation to find out yet. I do know that the first spray should go on a newspaper, and not on the truck. :o

    I think if I dent that bumper, it would be noteworthy!

    I think you should take the idea farther, and everytime you do any body damage at all, label the trail and the date with a sharpie, then when you cant tell its blue anymore there will be no way anyone can accuse you of being a mall crawler!

    It's silver sharpie, not black, and they are all over my skid plate! I have done a few body ones though...
    I got the idea from a beat to hell crawler I saw in the Moab McDonalds parking lot.

    You're emulating a beat-to-hell crawler? (Notice the hyphens in the compound adjective?) So are you saying this is what you're aspiring to for the FJC? :lol:

    The proper conduct of a road is not an activity reserved for some crazy people who enjoy a super 4x4, but is a very different from driving a private vehicle. Driving a 4x4 or all-terrain vehicle requires a high level of adaptability and a cautious observation of rapid decision making especially in the mountain. The variety of situations that arise require knowledge, practice and expertise, which only make an informed and experience.
