Default opinions please.

My truck is red and I have allready ordered 33x12.50-17 and 17" pro comp alloy 7089s cast blast wheels (they are the matte black finish). I have black body moulding down the sides of the truck (from the factory), and I have a black diamond plate tool box. I like the truck being red but it is just too much red. So my idea is that I will have the rocker panels line-x'd all the way down the truck to cover some of the red, and for a little protection from the new tires. I am also thinking about maybe taking the pads off of the front and rear bumpers and having all the chrome line-x'd as well, then putting the plastic pads back on. I may also put some bush wacker pocket style fender flares on, but that will be later.

What do ya'll think?
Does anybody have pics of this allready done (dosen't have to be on a ram)?
Does anybody have an idea of the cost to have this done?
What kinda finish does line-x have, can you keep it kinda semigloss lookin' with tire shine or somthing?
Is there somebody that is sweet with photoshop who could color a pic of my truck?

Thanks guys!!

I think that would look sweet, I dont think Id do the bumpers but the lower body panels would look good, Im doing the same thing to mine. If you want to send me a pic I can show you what it will look like in photo shop.

check out my gallery for line-x going down the rockers. . .best money Ive spent.

IIRC having the rockers sprayed was around $300. there is alot of prep work that has to be done and that is why the cost is as high as it is.

line-x will look good and glossy for a long time. My john deere gator has line-x in the bed and we haul all kinds of things back there, then just hose it out and it looks like new.
