I love that spray on bedliner. I did my grill, front bumper, and wheels with it stuff works great.

Great idea; just finished mine! I've noticed the contrast in it for a while against my black bumper. I think it had faded in the sun. Now I have to do the little license plate light covers!
And the tailgate handle and the door handles, damn! At least I did my antenna when new.

FYI: For those of you planning to do the step pad, you need to remove the license plate first.

The bumper step looks great. Did you sand the step down first or just paint it?

I didn't sand mine. You probably noticed I also didn't use bed liner, just cheap spray paint. I never actually step on mine and rarely drive it so it should last a while. Six years old next month and only 40k miles.
