At least let him take it out in the snow and get it a little more dirty, just to make washing it worth while.

pappy, you never said exactly what color black that is. stealth or black?

Posted by: Pappy

its stealth black. i honestly did not like the bare bumper. i installed it and the wife and kids said they liked it better then the bullhorn but i wasnt sure about it. once i coated them i held it back up there and it was a different story.

the bullhorn is done in Fire Red

Posted by: fastrider450r

what kind of an oven did you use before?

Posted by: Pappy

i used to travel to a friends shop where i used any one of 3 of his commercial ovens, a 8 x6 a 8 x12 or a 10 x 24

my new oven is perfectly sized for what i do and i can do 4 frames at once if needed

How much is one on those coated in steath black?

Posted by: meanyellow03ex

I'm not sure if I'm keen on the Knight emblem they are using now. I just bought a Bullhorn bumper for my quad and it came with the same "Knight" emblem. I wanted the regular Pro Armor Racing emblem. Maybe it will grow on me. I definately like how it looks on the black bumper rather than the brushed aluminum.
