Default Poll: Would you order factory bedliner in a Wrangler for $500 MSRP or less?

If a no carpet/bedliner option were available from the Factory, would you order it if it was $500 MSRP or less?

Probably not. You can Raptor Line it yourself any color you want for about $100. Why pay interest on the extra $400? Plus knowing Chrysler it'll be about $1000 and it won't come with the carpeting.

Only if I can get a "Rhino tested" badge on the side...

No seriously, I would rather have the carpet in storage and do the liner myself. Plus, not to knock Chrysler but I am not sure I would trust them with doing it correctly. I could see it peeling off.

Chrysler started offering factory bedliner in Ram trucks this year - sprayed on the assembly line and comes with the same warranty as the vehicle. I can see Jeep being able to do this BETTER than aftermarket, since it would be sprayed on before assembly and they would probably have a way to route/hide the wiring.

I'd do it. They probably void the warranty because you wore the wrong type of shoe though.

I'll stick with carpeting. I prefer the noise dampening and heat dissipation charecteristics carpet offers.

For me, it comes down to $$$,,, If they would do it for close to what I could do it for, I would go for it....
But I can imagine that it would be at least a $500 option!!!!! even though the company could buy that stuff by the tanker load for a fraction of the cost....
They would probably have about $10 per vehicle in it and charge a fortune!!!

Sorry I enjoy doing the mods on my own and saving a bundle at the same time. Chrysler can't even make a clock spring right, much less a bedliner option.
