I've been looking at getting the black bar for awhile now, but the rust issue has me concerned. If I spray on a coat of Duplicolor bed liner coating before install, would that help? I'm also going to spray my chrome bumpers with the same stuf.

yea, i'd say a bed liner coating will help protect it. another guy on the forum just had a thread about rhyno lining his
I just plan on waxing it and keeping up on it. As stated, i can always powdercoat it. Hell they even have chrome powder coat now
sweet. get some lights for that thing. was it a pin tinting those tails?
I like the stock lights, the only thing ive thought looks better is these oracle http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/r...CLEHaloKit.jpg kits...but thats pricey, not on the top of the list, and in the far future. Tinting the tail wasnt bad at all. VHT nightshades, a good clear coat, and a few hours was all it took.
Veddy nice. I def noticed the tails too. That's my cup 'o tea, just tinted enough to be noticeable by the trained eye...lol
As for the Bullbar...Stainless can still rust, but mostsly pitting/surface annoyance. T304 is high grade and likely will not cause any issue's. Grade T409 is like your exhaust and will get minor pitting here/there and start rusting.
Neverdull will clean up any pitting or staining going on. it's a wadding polish, BUT it will put light scrathes if your rubbing hard.
Keep it clean and you'll be fine. The painted one's as RH had I don't believe are stainless???
Makes sense what would suck is getting a deer in the headlights and missing that bar all together. I gotta do that vht tail tint I could care less out the back i'll never see it driving.
The bar looks sweet,Just keep it clean and you should be fine,I've got SS nerfs on my Jeep,they've been on there 3 years,never been waxed and they still look shiney and no rust.
