Thinking about bed lining my whole truck. Should I do it!?

I'm thinking about bed lining my whole truck with custom coat in desert tan and doing fender flares, bumper, etc. in black bedliner. I love how it looks and the idea of not being too worried about scratching it on trees and such on trails. Does anybody have any experience with a bed liner paint job or any advice?
How I'm thinking I want it to look:

How it looks now:

 

It's your truck. Your choice, but you might want to think about what that will do to resale value if you ever decide to sell it. We're not talking about flat black rattlecaning a '98 Honda Civic here.

 

I will admit to considering this on another vehicle I had a few years ago, so some of this info might be old, but I don't think much has changed.

Here's the deal. It will make it hard as shit, it's gonna add some weight as well, and hard to repair stuff. Washing sit to get looking how you think it will in your head is apparently a huge pain in the ass too. If you don't care how it looks that will work then. Also resale, you now need to find the other guy in a million who wants this on their truck, because your paint job is fucked.

The answer is "Wow a great idea, but looking closer at it, not as good as some might think" I would not do it.

 

Not a fan? Haha

Solid point. Hoping to keep it till it dies, but in case it doesnt end up that way, I might get screwed :/

 

doesn't matter what people think, you want go for it

 

What's that program you're using to mock up changes?

 

Sweet! Thanks for the link. I had been searching but didn't come upon much

Its the app "3DTuning" it's pretty sweet

 

SHEESH! Crazy lady

 

My buddy did it, has been around 6 years and still looks decent

 

Appreciate the positivity lol

 

Did he just go black or do a tinted one?

 

This is kind of like neck and face tatoos on a chick.

"It seemed like a good idea at the time. My boyfriend at that time really liked it. Now I'm stuck with it."

 

If your paint is crap,go for it,otherwise WHY.

 

I did my FZJ80 in desert tan. I used Monstaliner brand. I quoted you so I could add/correct what you wrote.
Hard as shit: yes
Add some weight: the weight of 2 gallons of paint
Hard to repair stuff: like what?
Washing it is a PITA: not @ all. Every bit of dirt, grime, mud, whatever came off way easier than it did with paint.
Resale: a lot less people will want to buy it after it's 'lined.
I loved having mine 'lined & glad I did it.

Thanks for the info. Happy to hear that you don't regret it. My truck is getting some rust spots so I figured this would be a good way to start over after removing the rust
