I do, too!






Now I just gotta decide what to coat it with. Leaning toward bedliner, either black or black/grey mix.

Any suggestions from anyone?

Texture isn't too important to me. I would rather have a smooth surface so its easy to clean.

The black/grey look I am considering is pictured below...

i would go away from actual bedliner, because like you said, it would be a bear to clean. my bed is never clean no matter what.

i spray all my stuff (bumpers/sliders/suspension) with standard semi-gloss automotive paint as well as a nice coat of primer. it is durable, and Rustoleum black semi-gloss is a pretty close match for touch ups.

Well that makes things cheaper and easier. I think I have plenty of paint and primer leftover from other projects.
