Has anyone seen this or done it them selfs? I am thinking about using bed liner instead of plasti dip. I'm not sure what it would look like.. Been scouring the internet for days!

this is pretty common in the world of jeeps, they say it holds up well if done properly and not rushed

I was thinking about doing it, so much chrome... I hate chrome haha. I might cross my fingers give it a try and hope for the best. I might try to spray it instead of rolling, rolling gives it a more rough finish.

The bedliner is much more permanent than the plastidip.

I used bedliner spray on the fender flares and it held up fantastic.

we used bedliner on the outside of our hunting truck (an old Toyota) and it held up perfectly. It was by no means a beauty queen though. We ran it through a lot of different things and it really held up well and appeared to make the fenders a lot more durable. I will see if I can find pics - but it was by no means a professional job.

only pic I could find - and not sure that it will help much - but the truck paint is still holding up good

Yeah, I would like it to look good, but tough out in the woods, I was ready that dipping will eventually peel, and chip from rocks and branches ect, and saw that bed liner is more tough. I would want to do all the chrome on the truck (bumper trim, door trim, front grill)
