It will do fine. Powdercoating is very strong and resistant to chipping. Much stronger than paint. It will be about your strongest option besides having no powdercoating at all and just running bare aluminum.

Ok, I have the AC nerfs, but mine are regular aluminum finish. If the ones you have aren't actually powdercoated, then they will show considerably more nicks and scratches from normal wear and tear.

That is a high-wear area on a quad anyways, so I wouldn't worry too much, especially if you are going to be riding in the woods.
