Local place to me, they spray on Vortex liner. Line-X wanted $220 per bumper! Total cost for both bumpers and a UV topcoat: $230

if you've ever seen a pressure analysis done on a hood, you would see that there is negative pressure running over the hood at speed. Meaning those little louvers would do nothing if they were facing forwards. Facing the rear they allow hot air to be sucked out.

bought a 36 millimeter to bust my axle nut free and snapped the breaker bar like a twig. I tried pb blaster and a map gas torch no dice. Oh well guess wheel bearings will have to wait till I get new axle shaft ends

They are a little more expensive, but they are awesome quality. You can see my install and result in my build thread. If I remember correctly, I got them from http://jeepinoutfitters.com/scripts/default.asp and I think if you contact them they can give you a discount for being a member (either a CherokeeForum or JeepForum member, I forgot which)
