I don't remember exactly when I bought mine, but I know I have had it since a couple months before Camp Commander, summer of last year, and it still looks great!
I chimmed in on the other forum where the issue was posted, but will here too. I live in the same kind of weather, and see salt and all types of road chemicals all winter. I go off road. I had mine at WCCC10, and its had some abuse, and my matrix still looks pretty good. I usually wash it off after an outing, and its have hand washed it with Carnu and other protectants, but i think it holds up with out those. Mine is still rock solid so far.
did you paint the cross bar red on your own?
Dude throw the front skid on there and trim the bumper. With the matrix already on there it would look wicked. :)
