Getting an aluminum winch plate from UCF in the next few days. Do you guys think I should leave it unfinished, paint it, or get it anodized?

I'll have to see how it looks unfinished with the white jeep. Otherwise, I might look into black anodize. Thanks all for your input!

I rattle canned the aluminum on my bumper and winch plate. Thought about leaving it bare with my darker coloured Jeep, but the hoop bar was steel.

That is one clean front end! Holy sheet, you could eat off the winch.

Thought you had a bug under the right headlight then I realized it was on my monitor. You do got dirt on your tire.
I have aluminum fenders and I just left them raw. My Jeep is bright silver metallic and, while obviously not a perfect match, the raw aluminum doesn't really stand out against the silver paint and blends fairly well, I think. I love the fact that after a year or so of little rocks being thrown up by the front tires pitting up the front face of the rear flares, I can sand them pretty smooth. Probably not an issue on a winch plate though.

With a white jeep, I don't think bare aluminum looks as good.
