Looks Great! :thumbs: So they just taped over the holes in the bed rails and tailgate when they shot the Linex to get the "smooth" finish?

My buddy who sprays bedliner was showing me the tape they use. It is aluminum tape like this.

Because the bedliner comes out at roughly 160* IIRC

Thanks Jeff, very interesting! I wonder how that holds up with heavy use since there is no metal "support" behind the liner material? :dunno:

He said the GM aren't as bad as the fords. I wanted over the rail till he popped off my rail caps and the holes were about 2-3" long. So it said there was no guarantee it wouldn't get "wavy" because of the huge holes

Thanks for the comments, got the bill today everything came out to $700 so its quite a bit but should pay for itself in the long run

Wow, that's a lot less than Line-X quoted me over the phone. They said $1k just for the rockers, but I think they thought I wanted to go up high, but I want it like you did it. On top of that, a bed liner is $600 for over the rail (I think).

I'll definitely be curious how all this holds up for you. If it does, I might be able to justify the drive!
