I used the Rustoleum Trim and Bumper paint. It has a yellow XJ on the can It's just the right color/gloss. I did mine in october and bashed a million snowbanks and plenty of dirt with it since and it still looks good.

I used the bedliner in a spray can from Advance on my 98'. I think it might of been Duplicolor. It filled in most of the scratches without needing sanding, wears well, texture is good, it is holding great on the flexible endcaps, no flaking or peeling.
