thanks in advance..

I painted mine about a year and a half ago. Sanded it up, used primer, and 'Hammered' texture paint. I used paint because of $$ plus I wanted it to match my roof rack & bike rack colors (which are painted as well).

I'd say I should have re-painted it maybe 6 months ago. Lots of little chips in the paint, and with the chrome they really shine through. Obviously not enough to make me repaint it yet, but if you are picky, go with Line-X it will last a lot longer.
