Line-X Done! PICS!!

I am scheduled (thanks to TruckGasm) to have my drop in liner removed and replaced with a color matched + Xtra Line-x bed liner on 3-6-10. I can’t wait! I am going on a cruise next week and will not be able to have it done till March. I have not seen one in Dark Blue Pearl so I am anxious to see it. Pics coming as soon as I get it done.

I brought home a load of firewood recently and noticed some bare metal under it where the drop in had rubbed through the paint so no need in putting it off any longer.

My drop in is misaligned and oddly shaped so its rubbing really bad. Its a Ford drop in bu the bed underneath is really scratched up. I don't know if I can take pics while they are doing it but I will post up what I can. I might pull the drop in out myself so I can get pictures of the bed before and after.

For the liner, color match and the Xtra its 620+ tax and $671 after tax. I think its a great deal for what I will get and The Line-X guy on here is in my neck of the woods and gets rave reviews so I know I will get a good product and good craftsmanship. Plus, my truck is worth it. I have the 6.5 foot bed.

I started to go black with Xtra but I think I would regret not getting the color match. I have already decided to not get the 3-D logo. Strictly for resale value purposes.

Good choice going with the color-match! I had Truckgasm's place do mine, and I love it. It has really held up great! I was kind of worried because he hadn't seen a White sand tri-coat color-match, but it is perfect!

I love that color. Do you have a pic of it? I might be getting the black with the extra after all. I have a large aquarium that needs about 250-300 in funds put into it so I am still debating. plants, new filters, light bulbs and what not. Either way, he will be spraying my liner in. Black or blue. ither one will work as that is my color scheme.

You won't regret it. Line-X is one of my best additions to my truck!

I don't doubt that at all. You guys have never steered me wrong before and alot of you speak very highly of the liner. So far, no regrets on any mod I have made. I love my truck.

Yes, it still looks brand new. Even with the dirt and crud that gets blown into the bed just a quick rinse without soap and it's back to perfect!
Yeah, I've hauled tree limbs, my personal toolbox and a few other things and no problems, it's great!!! I also use it to take the old oil to recycling and it spilled all over it and it washed up to be exactly how i got it- does the same thing when i have to go fill the 5 gal gas/diesel cans too!

MbL90, glad it's holding up!!!

The Tri-Coat, the way we do it, takes much longer and is more expensive. Now, I know of some other dealers that do it a differently, but our way it the best way as far as color goes.

No doubt in my mind it's the best way! I love it, y'all did a great job and were VERY helpful!! Well worth the extra money.

I was really impressed with the other trucks you guys had done in there when I picked mine up, those were amazing!! I had not thought about doing it inside the truck or a few other places, but I am definitely thinking about it now!!
