I went to a rhino lining place because I have always wanted one for my bed, and the rocker panels are rusting above the molding. I should have removed the molding when I moved to Upstate NY from Oklahoma where i bought the truck.

Here is the estimate:
rocker panels 325, they do all prep
Bed Liner over rail: 430
Tailgate: 20 dollars (its all banged up and rusty because of my latch getting stuck in the winter and me slamming it to get it to lock)
Total: 775
Weird thing, they said they don't do bumpers. They said they could powdercoat them. i am wondering if I should get them powdercoated.

My tax return mod will be the rhino lining and a dual fan setup I saw from ebay...althoughthe fanis very pricey, but it looks so professional. Also since i move across country and tow a lot I want a reliable fanAND shroudsetup so i don't overheat. It pulls over 5500 CFM. I am gonna message the guy and ask what fans he used for the setup. They look just like Flex a lites. If it was 2 black magic fans then i would jump on it hands down.

i seen that fan shroud on ebay , so now im making my own kinda like that , cost 40.00 fan was 260.00 should have it down tomorrow or saturday...
Ive used herculiner in my bed and really like it..

 

I was thinking it would not be that hard to make yourself. You would just need to cut away some plastic on the stock fan shroud as the base, then fabricate a "frontpiece" that can be bolted and sealed to the stock fan shroud. I wouldn't need theSPAL setup. Probably just a hot wire to a switch on my dash, or to the ignition. I would have it running all the time.

The fan setup is the nivest I have seen, but with shipping its 509.99. It must be really good.

I would actually just like the shroud and then install my own choice of fans. Like if I could find 2 usedBlack Magic fans on ebay for a deal, and install those in place of what they have.

I have heard things about herculiner, I am gonna research that.

Thanks for always posting on my threads PA.
