I got black but when I asked they said it was $250 more to color match it. Only had the truck a week, but its holding up well so far

4 months on mine, I've transported military equipment, gear, a motorcycle, all kinds of stuff and mine's holding up awesome. $430, looks VERY clean molds nicely to your bed much more than the Rhinos I've seen, doesn't scuff as easily either it's a harder material. The plastic on the lip of my tailgate, on the other hand...lol.

I had mine done a week ago, 800 miles on the truck.
I think they Line-X guys did a spectacular job, I love the color and it feels quite rugged, although I’ve succeeded in making myself not what to put anything in the bed.
Depending on the lighting the color is slightly darker than the body paint, but a heck of allot closer than black!

Sorry, I don’t remember the price difference, my total cost was $800. One tip, the color version needs a good 6 hours with prep, dry time and finishing; so plan to be there for the day.

I am getting Line X in my truck, if it ever shows up. I called the dealer and he said that for color matching it is $300 extra because they have to call Dupont and getting a specialty paint to match the factory color.

Interestingly, when I called around to talk to installers most of them steered me away from the colored bedliners with the explanation that the color tends to fade over time and not look very good. That info was mostly from RhinoLining places though. Anyone have feedback on the differences between RhinoLining and Line-X? Do they have different textures, feel, stickiness, etc.? Rob

I think the Line-x xtra is used for color-match applications so I doubt it will fade anytime soon. If I planned on keeping my truck for more than a year I would definitely throw in a line-x bedliner!

i myself plan on doing the Line-x xtra. which keeps it from fading in color, and is apparently 6 times harder than kevlar. that is what line-x says, but i still think i will go with that so i dont have to worry about fading etc. plus, i have seen some nasty looking spray in bedliners.
