I like that a lot. Is it easy to take off?

Man, those stock bumpers and skid plates stick so far out; they just get smashed so easy. I wouldn't have wasted the time. I was on my third skid plate before I got smart and put a bumper and plate with a better approach angle. It does look really good though. I guess I would have used spray paint while on the truck, using a little card board to mask the edges, because I would have had to paint it every time I went off-road.

I did mine with Plasti-Dip (Black). It's removable, easy to apply, easy to touch up, and chip resistant.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah...You can pull the center plastic panel off the front bumper...and mask and paint that small part below that center grille (on the bumper). The pan/skid plate drops very easy...(4)13 MM and (2)15 MM bolts and it drops. Then easy to spray.
I get they may get destroyed if off-roading...But my Pavement Princess will be OK. I have gone through some pretty crappy snow/ice/salt and all still looks like new so far. I have also jumped an occasional curb or two when the A-holes in the Chik-Fil-A drive-thru line are blocking the entrance to Chipotle
