OK..I like the texture, BUT  seems like it could also be a rust-hider. Saw
WIS plates, so I would think it would be a good preventative effort. I also
want to paint the bra on.  I live in TX and mosty rocks and javelinas to
worrry about.  I do not want to go that far up the sides, but all in all...I
think a very cost effective and attractive addition. Thanks.  May want to
talk to you  more later if that's OK.   Really nice mod IMO. Thanks.
