Default Bedliner options

I'm thinking of getting the Line-X Premium done for my truck. I was initially thinking of getting the Xtra, colored in white, but on other threads folks were saying that it could be a blinding color and might show too much dirt. This is not a work truck, but might get dirt and leaves in the back.

Thoughts on the color? Should I do the color match in white? The white painted bed actually looks pretty nice, as it has a metallic look to the paint.

Secondly, what about the BakFlip and Rollbak covers? Which one is more popular? Will the black color fade on those covers?

thanks!!

Thats cool. I never knew or have seen the colored bedliners. I would not get white though. It seems it would stain/show dirt way too easy.

I've seen colored liners, but getting white on a white truck isn't really seen. It does show a lot of dirt and whatever. Black seems to be the standard on a white truck. You tend to see more color matching on red, blue, and green trucks.

Okay, so it sounds like Linex Black Premium is what I'm going to go with.

What about the covers? BakFlip? Rollbak? Others? I'm thinking BakFlip will be better since I only have a 5.5ft bed, but I'm open to other brands also.

thanks - I appreciate the feedback!

Just wondering why you wanna spend the extra money to go with the premium line x when you are going to cover the bed. I just had bed line xed on Saturday and the installer told me not to waste the extra 200 on the premium. Tomorrow I'm getting the bakflip g2 via UPS and will be installing it. Looking at the covers in person the bakflip brand looks and feels like the superior product.

Can't help you with covers, never saw a point in using them...
