Smile Bed liner color, Black or colormatch? NYO

I'm getting a spray in "speedliner" next Wednesday and the guy insisted on the colormatch. My truck has front and rear "color matching" powdercoat bumpers it's not a perfect match tho. I was thinkig black over the rail, or would graphite over the rail look better? Need your opinion.

I voted for Black over the rail. Gives it some contrast.

Sharp looking truck!

Black. I have seen some "color matched" sprays that fade pretty bad over time. Findout if that liner is a soft material like Tuff Liners. If so I would reccomend getting something else. I have Tuff and I am not happy with the results. It rips pretty easy, and looks like crap when they "repair" it. All they do is goop a little bit on a screw driver and slop it in the whole. Doesn't look good at all. If I could do it all over again, I would go either Line-X (which is very hard to find now days) or Xtreme Liners.

Colormatch fades after awhile and doesn't match the truck color for long. Black is the color that looks like a liner should look.

Suppositively this speedliner stuff is better than anything on the market, I told the guy about line-x and he said that's the only liner that can hardly even compare. He said this stuff takes a little longer to dry than line-x but is smoother cleaner and doesn't fade or 100% free re-spray. So he convinced me. It's called 2033 motorsports and he sprays all the new trucks from the local dodge house.

Gray in the bed and under the rail. Not as hot as Black in the sun. Black will burn your knees off down here in the summer.

Speed Liner

I had a black Speed Liner on my 02 that was over the rails, at that time I was an Ag Teacher and I used my truck to travel to stock shows and such, one of the kids was putting a steer rack in the back of my truck and one of the bars slid out and hit the bed rail, much to my surprise all that happened was a little scuff on the bed rail, not a dent, or a scratch. I put a little bit of the Mothers back to black stuff on it and I never seen the scuff again. I was very happy with the speed liner. I will say that it did discolor somewhat but I didn't think it was enough to worry about.
