man, you not saying you are going to spray your rims and grill with bed liner are you? That would be really hard core. I was told I couldn't paint my chrome grill by the dealer, so I got another grill from eBay and painted it.
Good luck

I'm callin bs on that, I don't think you'll end up liking the bedliner idea. Like mathew said just get the rims powdercoated, powdercoat is strong and durable. As far as the grill, if you hit something hard enough to scratch it the grill will prolly crack too and bedliner isn't gonna stop that.

I tried to do a quick google for you OP, but Im not finding too much DIY spray liners. I know Herculiner and Rhino liner you can do yourself, but its more roll-on, not spray material. Maybe you could brush it? I wouldn't, it'd be too thick, but then again, I wouldnt be doing what you're trying to do, lol. I found something in a spray can on Amazon, but it was only $10, lol, probably not too good....

For the record, why exactly do you plan on doing this? If you can afford the dime, just get'em powdercoated (rims anyway, can't do the grill). If not, why not just paint them? Just curious as to your thoughts, I may learn something

She had nice ***** and I'm sure she wouldn't lie to me, and besides she only wanted $850 for a sport bumper cover and another $250 to install it.
I can't believe you don't think she was on the level. Oh, did I mention she had nice *****?

wel I would like to powder coat them but thats expensive...I heard from someone that they heard that from someone spray bedlined their rims for 50 dollars but I don't where or how lol. personally I think it would be a unique look and I'd be doin it for looks rather than protection

well, if you are up for experimenting, you can go down to your local autoparts place like autozone and pick up a couple rattle cans of bed liner. I have one can that I was going to use on my step bars but I just took the bars off and never did anything with em. Just look in their rattle can paint section.

If I was you, I would take your grill and rims to your local Linex, and get a Linex spray in bed liner. They do a great job of prep and taping off, and ive seen them do a lot of custom jobs on trucks. They've done a new lifted wrangler completely red Linexed, looked sick, and ive seem them do just doors on a white lifted H2 Hummer, black with Spay on bed liner, sounds weird but its really sick looking. I say your best bet to make it look good is Linex. They'll let you know if its even worth doing and if it'll look good. So there your best bet i would say.
