Some rubber plugs that every ranger has. Dont know what their purpose is.
As for the price, it was $479 after tax. They gave me a $60 "customer referral" discount since I had my last truck sprayed there too. Yeah, its alot but worth it. I called around to every Line-X place within 100 miles of here and they are all about the same on price, maybe $10 difference here and there but not worth the gas cost to drive there. This place is only about 10 miles from home. Some have color matching, kevlar additives, etc. Some only have basic Line-X. Since this is basicly just a weekend driver/haul around toys & stuff truck I didn't feel the color matching and all that was necessary for me. They called me about halfway through the day to tell me that they had broken 3 of the 8 bolts that hold the factory tiedown hooks in the bed. I was thinking I was going to have to get the drill out and replace them myself but by the time I went to pick it up they had ran over to the dealer, picked up new bolts, and had it done right...good job.
IF any of you decide to do this and it matters to you, work on getting the bedbolts loose before you take it in. I about killed myself but got mine out and back in loosely before I brought it over to make sure they didn't spray over them...they made sure to thank me for that!

Yea...they have some skinny guy there thats been doing it for a few years and he does a killer job, thats part of the reason I chose to give this place my business. They did an awesome job on my dads F150 too.

Looks good and a great price. Prices must vary by region and franchise... Look at all the extra bed bolts they put in the newer rangers...weird. Mine only has 6, that has 10. And, like someone mentioned before, the rubber "plugs" in the front of the bed are not there anymore
