Canada Aftermarket Bumpers - Best way to Prevent Rust?
Hi, I recently purchased new heavy duty front and rear bumpers (with tire carrier) on my new 2012 Wrangler JK Sahara Unlimited and I was wondering if you guys had any thoughts, tricks, or suggestions on the best way(s) to prevent rust in the long term??

Thanks!!

I go to Crown Oil spay and purchase a can of the rust inhibitor they use. I spray that on the back side of my bumper and under my jeep every now and then. So far all good. Its under 10 bucks a can and works great.

You could Line-X the bumpers. Looks good and no rust!

Mine is holding up great.
