To those of you who have either of these bumpers how would you describe the finish?

Matte, Satin, Gloss, Flat? I'm considering painting my center caps for wheels in order to match a future rear bumper purchase.

I would say the ARB is more of a semi gloss finish, satin is more flat but still smooth. At least all the ones I have installed the look semi gloss.

I've got the C4X4 rear bumper and i'd say that it's a textured black sattin. Deff not gloss. I painted my lower doors with duplicolor spray on truck bed liner and it's a really good match

I would concur. ARBs come powdercoated.

Well both are powdercoated so it should be close to the same right?

Not quite, the powder coating on my rear bumper is nothing like my suspension parts. Both powder coated black.
