bedline everything??

I've been on contemplating bed lining my whole truck for a while now. I kinda like the look of it now but I cant decide if it would look better all murdered out. Plus my bedsides are all scratched up and the passenger side one has a nasty ding from wheelin...I did all the bed lining on my truck now by myself and it turned out great so price and labor is not really a problem. I just cant decide so gimme your opinions on what I should do. Also could someone good with photoshop gimme an idea of what it might look like?? Thanks in advance...I can get some better pictures if needed

If you do alot of wheeling, I would say go for it. A buddy of mine used to have an old Jeep that had orange bedliner inside and out. I loved the way it looked.

It would be interesting to see one in person.

I have certain parts of my truck bedlined. Some are portions of the truck that people usually wouldnt bedline lol.

As far as bedlining the entire truck? I dont know if I would or not. You will never be able to get your white back, unless you could find a way to paint over the bedliner.

On a pretty much stock truck I'd say no.. but I think it looks pretty good on that Raptor or something similar!

Have you priced it out to do the whole truck in LineX? There will be alot of static electricty.

I think you should do it, that sorta matte black finish looks awesome plus it'd be rediculously tough just bang out that dent first.
I want to bedline the bottom half of my truck but i have a dent in like the exact same place from tryin to navigate a turn that was too tight while wheeling so my passenger side smashed a tree

Its all about execution... Lot of nice looking trucks in this thread... but I saw a nissan pathfinder IRL with it and it was terrible looking... Uneven, dirty (not like just went mudding dirty... like tried to washed the car and dirt stuck in some places but washed away in others)
