If your gonna do something paint them with bed-liner, but since your front bumper is black, do the front bumper, fender flares, then at the crease in the door and down to the rockers, then over the rear fender flare, and then the rear bumper.

Looks bad ***... Trust me, I know.

It kinda depends on the person who is buying it like if it were me I would be like sweet I dont have to worry about scratches down there when I go off roading but if it were my dad he would pass on it cause for some reason he would think the truck was mudded and beat on in the woods.

I hope you didn't buy the truck as an investment...

Do what you want to it. Who cares what some hypothetical potential buyer at some unknown date in the future may or may not think about your customization?
