Default Bedliner

As anyone put bedliner on their rocker panels?

I would like to see pics if so. I have an 04 fx4. Two tone paint. Dark navy with dark grey along the bottom. I was thinking of bed lining the grey when I get my bed sprayed.

Yea that's kinda what I was worried about. I'll probably just stick with the bedliner.

Plastidip is not a product I would use on an area that sees a lot of friction, like a rocker panel. And who wants to deal with it peeling off every time you wash it or get into some mud?

Yea I agree. I didn't know what that product was but the way you guys are describing it then it is definately something I want to stay away from. Will hopefully do line-x in bed and rockers early this summer.

I would def use plastidip not bedliner. 4-5 coats willl not peel off easy and can taje pressure washing. Seen a truck on here already plastidip'd the rockers and fenders looks awesome, and not permanent.

Not had any experience with plasti-dip, so I wont talk against it....


But Bed-liner gives your truck a tough look, and is extremely durable....


Another option, not sure what it is called- is already on your truck, the textured paint further down on your rockers- this is what I'm going to have done to my truck, just have it brought up farther- I got a quote of 425.
