but go with what YOU like, not what everyone else tells ya.

just make sure you'll be ok with it, because it will be tough to go back. it looks good either way.

maybe just do your wheeling, then if it gets beat up line x it (or whatever) at that point. i'd like to see you do it though.
it'd be nice to get a guinea pig. and also i'd like to see how it looks on yours before i do mine

There is some clear coat stuff that Line-X can do that will keep it from fading.

Also if you wipe it with armor all like once a week that will do it do.


Also I vote do not do it. It looks good on trail rigs and SAS trucks but not on DDs. It's a mud truck kinda thing, not light trails kinda thing. I was considering doing it also but I decided instead to have my truck two-toned with DSG when I get it painted.

I plan on doing this too. I like the looks and I think it will give good protection of the rocker panels from chips and tar. I did read about a product called Durabak that has a UV inhibitor or something like that. It costs more with the UV inhibitor but it shouldn't fade like the rest. I read some reviews and apparently even that army uses it. Maybe worth a try.

I voted no. I mean, it doesn't look bad, but I like your truck better without it.

Nothing like a little extra protection from kicks, bumps and crap so do it already. :)
