Then i redid my bedliner it looked a little faded. I used rustoleum roll on bedliner this time and boy is it rough.

My next mod was a rear bumper. I bought this one off ebay . The guy who makes them does a great job and its been flawless so far. Coated it with cheap bedliner spray from pepboys and it looks great.



This is the best photo i have. But as you can see i kept the bumper caps on for a cleaner look
