In looking at some Gladiators online, viewing their window stickers, under the Optional Equipment heading, I sometimes see the line "premium front bumper with gloss black accents". Is this a steel bumper that would be able to have a winch attached to it or is it some sort of plastic bumper? Just not sure what the term actually menas.

Depending on the trim, the High Altitude has a gloss black matching bumper. Given that it notes "accents," it's more than likely just as @LouisvEarlleJT showed.

I can't rationalize a black HA. Whats the point of having painted bumpers if they're just painted the color of the plastic bumpers everyone else gets?

Personally i prefer the least amount of painted bits possible, but if one were to want stuff painted it might as well stand out.

And if you believe that option is "premium", I have two of them in my shed I'll sell you at a premium price.

Thanks everyone for the informative replies. They have answered my question and helped me understand a bit better the terms used.

You can order those trim pieces from MOPAR or any of the online parts dealers if you really want the black-out look.

Less than $30 each when I ordered them year from BAM.

I happen to be one of those people, but went with powder coat instead of paint.
