Yea when I had originally unmasked I think I waited to long and when I strated peeling it off paint would come up with it in a ccouple spots because it was almost dry.

And yes. All the black on the bottom is bed liner. Wasnt sure if I liked the 2 tone at first but it has really grown on me

Yea I just lightly sanded mine and it seems like its holding strong except for the couple problem areas I was expecting. I would of loved to get it done professionaly or even used a higher quality liner but it wasn't feasible at this time in life so I did it on a major budget and think it came out halfway decent

I understand...mine wasnt feasible either, but I had some bad scratches from a sign post that I couldnt live with, so it had to be done

Thanks for the compliments, I got 2 more cans in the garage for the fixes on Sunday.

White could look good but it is such a big contrast that imo if you don't have everything else either black or white it could look bad. Such as chrome bumpers/ wheels.
