The back side of the overriders look like they may begin to rust at some point. What do you guys do to coat it - if anything?
Can the Chrome take the 450 degrees required to Powder Coat it?

They are stainless so shouldn't rust. They are polished not plated.

X2. Overriders on #7750 have been driven and in the weather for 2+ years. Still look exactly the same.

Very helpful guys!
A few minutes on the buffing wheel and I'm much happier with it.

I painted mine using Rustoleum satin black.

It not only provides a more finished look to my eyes, but also because I have a dark car and didn't want the light color of the backside of the overriders reflecting in my paint.
