Im stoked to see it too, I want to grind the notches down on mine and fill in the holes and cover it in the duplicolor stuff. Are you doing it around the fenders too? By the way, to clean it you need a hand brush to get into the paint, it wont clean up easy with just a rag and soap. You need to scrub it pretty hard. I originally wanted the duplicolor stuff cause it has a smoother finish and is easier to clean up. Just a heads up.

I'm goint to start with just the sides. If I end up rolling the front fenders like SaturnICL did then I'll do the fenders as well. How much smoother is it? I don't want it to look like I just spray painted the sides with flat black paint.

I have seen it on a few dodges, and my friends cherokee, and its just smooth but textured. Its just like cleaning a normal car, with the rustoleum stuff you will have to scrub a dub dub.

jones here is a pic of the deep slate and the rustoleum bedliner next to each other so you can see the difference in color

Did the bedliner today. It turned out ok except I didn't do a good job off grinding of the nubs. I'm gunna have to resand the passenger side and bondo it up. I guess this is a preview of what it'll look like when I'm done.

These pictures make it look alot better than it is.

I might just get it Line-X'ed instead.

you should go over the fender lip like an inch up on the first fender line, that will cover up the rough trimmed edge.

looks good brian!

**Ricochet88** · 10-30-2009, 06:19 PM

hey what did you do to your bumper in that last pic its all scraped up

**Jones** · 10-30-2009, 06:27 PM

I bought it like that. One of the reason's I got it for cheap.

**Ricochet88** · 10-30-2009, 06:43 PM

o i didnt notice it in utah lol

sandman · 10-30-2009, 06:48 PM

i know you feel like this is your only solution since you cant find any good matching 5.9 cladding but i think limited or laredo cladding would look better than this. this is just my opinion and sometimes it seems a bit off since i like chrome grills and laredo cladding but thats just what i think. to each his own.

**MoonyJohn** · 10-30-2009, 06:50 PM

Looks much much better now. Nice to get rid of the notches on the side too.

It's to late for cladding now.

Finished the driver side today. I spent a lot more time on prep work and I'm really with with the results. Filling the two holes on the rear door weren't fun.

These pictures aren't very good but here you go.
