I did not know it was that complicated I thought it was haut sand and paint. How much is the Bedliner? I got a black jeep so do you think it would just be a waste to paint it when my truck is already black? But it's flat verses glossy so it might look kinda sick. Let me know what you think.

xjjeepthing ... and I always thought that it was black because you had armor on the quartor panel.

Those are pretty sick looking but pretty expensive considering how little the plate is.

345 is not so bad when you consider the cost of shipping heavy 3/16 steel plate. And those are big plates: go look at your XJ's panel. And remember there are 2 light boxes. Plus the steel had to be cut to size & bent.
