I was relieved to see that the first line was monotone paint. LOL

Well, powder coating the bumpers is probably out. I talked with the guys over at Broken Arrow Power Coating (super nice guy, did my PW bumpers) and he doesn't recommend trying to match metallic paint with powder coat. Says it's impossible to match correctly on the color and metallic level. Unless it's gloss white, black, or red, he says it never turns out good. They do have metallic powder coat so there is a chance that they have something that will be very close, but I'm not holding my breath. If it's not a perfect match, it will drive me nuts.
What he did recommend is having them do a base coat powder then paint on top of that. It's far more durable than trying to paint the chrome and gives the paint something better to stick to. Also, if the paint does chip, having a dark gray base of powder coat will be much better than chrome shining through.

if that was the option presented to me........I'd buy a painted Outdoorsman front bumper...and repaint (like I did on my truck) and then get a paintable rear bumper. I'd sell the stockers........and at the same time, get the dual exhaust rear bumper so you can pimp it out with a nice 5" tip setup

Checked Rockauto and they don't have 13-14 bumpers listed yet. I'll just roll with chrome for now. I'll be spending enough money on it up front and that will give me something to change later when I get bored. LOL
