I live at the beach. Almost every morning I have salt on my windshield. So its pretty bad.
I have had many jeeps since 1973 and have probably done over 100 mods to them in total.
EVERY!!! Aftermarket steel piece I have added in all those years has rusted. Some much worse than others. Chromed, powder coated, painted, even stainless, they all have rusted.
Not sure of the brand, but neighbor just added tubular doors to his jeep and 5-6 months later they are already showing rust where the welds are. His winch bumper lasted almost a year before rusting and I know that was not a cheap bumper.
Frankly, I am gun shy of doing any additions where I live. Any thoughts??
