does anyone know anything about rhino lining the entire outside of a truck? i was going to murder it out, flat black, but i think id like to use rhino lining. any ideas? i know the stuff you get from walmart is junk, so thats why im asking. thanks!

 

personally I think it looks like crap and it is expensive as **** to do

 

If you do it use line-x.

 

I agree with Camodown I think it looks like crap but I've seen it on both toyota's and jeeps. I personally know a guy in Wa. who taped a line about a foot up the body then used spray on linex on just that bottom it looked better.

 

I've seen it done a couple of times and when done well it looks pretty good. There are tintable bed liners out there that you can be colored any way you like and sprayed on to get an even texture. If you want to do it yourself get a good roll on bedliner like Duplicolor or Herculiner and do alot of prep work to rough up the paint and give the bedliner something to adhere to. One nice thing is if you do manage to damage the bedliner or rust develops, it is cheap and easy to repair.

 

Its really heavy as well

 

If you are going to be beating on the truck and wheeling it often then i think its a good investment. You dont have to worry about scratching it and the body rusting as quickly and if you ever do it has a lifetime warranty so who cares. Heavy? It couldnt weigh more than a couple hundred pounds at most which I doubt you could feel. I think it looks better than scratched up paint, but worse than decent paint. So you have to ask yourself, would you scratch the **** out of the paint if you didnt bedline the whole truck?

 

i used rocker gaurd on my corolla, different sorta deal but i only did it to the body line and it looks really good

 

green line x



close of of mine

i line x'd my ranger to its really great stuff! It stands up to the trail so much better then paint and its really cheap to do if you do it yourself my total was 150$ and my m8s cost him about 750$ for the whole suv!

sorry for fj pics im still looking for my ranger with the line x

 

thanks everyone. appreciate the feedback. i dont know what im going to do just yet. i dont take mine off road, but then again, it is 23 years old... so idk yet. but will post new pics soon. it already looks alot different than it did.

 

i used mortons spray on bed liner it MUCH cheaper then line x and its the same damn stuff... i suggest buying 4 kits of it and do the whole truck inside and out $150 per kit

 

Tys 4x4 FTW did it on the bottom of his truck. He may have pics on his gallery

EDIT: he doesn't, but he'll prolly see this and post some up

 

the whole inside as well?

 

He did it on the outside, there's a body line about a foot from the bottom that he followed

 

My gf's uncle has an old Ford that's completely Line-X'd.
