That looks really cool. What color did you use? My rig is Oxford white with the tan bottom trim. It's fine, but I feel like it's limiting up when you could do with the rest of the truck. I would much prefer to have darker actions of some kind, like a dark gray, kind of like what you did.

Bedliner will definitely hold up better than plasti dip. Plasti dip will hold up well as long as you don't do extreme off roading or wash your truck often.

Looks like we both used black plasti dip. They make many colors that you can try instead, like light or dark gray and a glossifier.

What does the matte black look like in the wild? I sense that it actually has a grey-ish hue to it, given that it's not regular paint. I'm thinking of using anthracite grey to cover the tan, but then use matte black for the rims, plus a coat or two of glossifier, just to make the rims pop a little (but not to undue the matte effect).

What brand of bed liner did you use? My plasti dip is starting to where off after a year, and I don't know if I just want to put plasti dip back on.
