I used the Raptor liner in my jeep and for 100 bucks its very affordable. Works great!!! As for noise I couldnt tell a difference and I leave my plugs pulled so I can wash the jeep right out and its great! Mines a 2 door and I removed my backseat. I love it, I also daily drive it, Its been about a year and no fading, plus you can always touch it up, cant go wrong for 100 bucks, i would recomend some nice rubber floor mats tho do it, you will love it

 

To be honest I wouldn't do it and I have a lot of things bedline on my jeep , now what I would do is a satin flat black or even just flat black

 

problem with that is you will scratch it up alot, dropping your keys, dropping a wrench, Ive dropped a breaker bar from about 4 feet up and the bedliner wasnt messed up at all

 

Well with that comment I guess the question is what is your reason for the bedliner whole jeep for , looks or for it to take a beating by a 4' pry bar

 

Actually, not that I thought about it, if you have the disposable income to do so, and your jeep is used primarily for wheeling and not a DD, then go for it. It would add another layer of protection to the body. IF you do use your jeep as a DD and you really want a paint job, i'd say go matte black, it is such an awesome color for the jeep, however, if you wheel, it'll show scratches and scuffs like a mofo.

 

I vote no. My friend has a custom buggy and had it professionally bedlined. Looked good for a loll over a year then it started fading was red now looks pinkish in some spots and like rust in others were the mud and dirt is trapped. Also he decided to redo the upper dash and roll bars so we had to strip all the bedliner. PITA for sure. He was gonna have it powdercoated and we started sandblasting it but it didn't have much effect. Had to peel and scrape it off.

 

I once saw a Toyota PU that was entirely bedlined. I've seen few things that looked as stupid, in my opinion.

 

I have an 81' CJ and did the whole thing. Works great. Just check into what liner you put on, they have some stuff now to keep it from fading.

 

Definately no; the ones I've seen look terrible, resale value will be gone.

 

well i dont think "looks" is the reason for doing it whatsoever???
