yea i loaned my explorer to my younger brother mind you he just got his license and is an owner of a sidekick and black berry i would have seen that coming sooner or later.

and thanks for the comments. yea i just choose to use bedliner material so its alot stronger and gives it a nice little matte texture not to much texture though you can always add more coats and amplify its texture to your desire.

Did this to my 04 while back and the finish is holding up flawless even after a scrap or two, the liner never even budged. If you are looking for a strong finish against scrapes and rock chips this is the only way to go IMO.

that looks really good..how does it come from ebay? is it like a flat black color? does it look good how it comes or do you need to at least spray paint it? and you just have to take out the bottom fastners in the bottom of the bumper and it installs right there?

from ebay it comes in this like semi flat finish at least not worthy enough to just slap it on the suby so i would definately recommend painting either flat blaack , bed liner material or car color w.e ur preference. and to install you need to remove a few clips i believe 3 on each side to install the lip and also drill a few hole in the middle section at the bottom of the bumper. pretty straight forward installation. any more question just let me know!!
