Ok so after a month of waiting here it is finally finished my bedliner. There are a few spots I will be touching up in the spring since it was dark out when I finished but I am happy with it and have had alot of compliments and actually had a jeep guy at a stoplight ask me how I did it and I have only driven to work so far. Here are a bunch of pics for viewing pleasure. Please let me know what you think.
Prep work:



First coat on:



Finished product (theres no chrome or paint showing through anywhere it just looks that way from reflections):






A shot of the texture:

Inisde the doors (don't mind the baking soda its a long story about a cat peeing in my truck at work):

Looks pretty good. I didn't even think about doing the doorjambs on mine, I'll have to think about that some more.

Thanks guys! I'm really happy with it so far. I did the door jambs just to clean it up a bit and I figure its a "high traffic" area with being stepped on all the time so I went ahead and took the time to do it. Plus this way when I open my doors it looks beautiful LOL. MikeRo I used this Monstaliner do-it-yourself roll-on truck bed liner outperforms Herculiner Bed Liner, Duplicolor and Rustoleum Road Warrior. I like that it is UV resistant so it won't fade right away. I think its like a 5 yr minimun guarantee against fading and chalking. I used the 1 gallon kit with 2 solid coats and had it not been cold and dark when I finished the second coat I would have done a third since I had enough left for it.
