Update from the dead. Swaps running great, haven't had any issues at all.

Really underestimated the work involved, but it turned out really nice. Now the tub has raptorliner inside, under and outside.

Looks great. Really curious to see if the blue continues to look nice over some time. Has your tub been hard to keep looking nice like i was experiencing above?

What do you have over your rollbars there? I've had exposed rollbars for so many years. What you've covered those with looks pretty nice.

The black I had covered the tub and underside with still look great. Its all been covered in sand and mud and cleaned multiple times. Really no noticeable wear.

I can't remember but I think those were besttop roll bar covers. Theyve held up well too.
