Crossmember looks good. Painted or powder?

Thanks for looking..

This one is painted, first with two good coats of primer and three coats of black.

There were a few spots that were pretty nasty with crud, but virtually no corrosion.
The one in the Burb needs everything and is drum six lug, so it made sense to do a full swap while I'm giving everything else the once over.

While waiting for a spot in the shop and a couple parts to get the 5 lug conversion underway, I have been looking and found something to try and remove the buildup of haze on the windows..
Researched online some options and came up with CC550http://www.winsol.com/550.htm.
So tonight I tried it on one area of the windshield that is pretty bad. Looks like it's going to work really well...

Needless to say, I did part of the passenger side. The rest of the windshield was just cleaned and dried.. No kidding
