Yeah, you can do it. I just had the bed done on my 2006 and talked to them about shooting my rocker panels bumper to bumper. They told me $350 a side! :0
That's a little steep IMO.

I know that the rocker panels can be done cause my neighbor did it to his half-ton hemi. You could probably put bedliner on those other things, but i don't know how well it would work when not on steel, but maybe all your parts are steel.

its not too bad when i was just quoted 5500 dollars to re-paint the sides of my truck because of scratches on the lower panels

I am thinkin of doin all black, i had rhino liner done in my bed and i can really notice the black faded, maybe line-x is better?

The LineX will turn gray/white from the soap at car washes. It's all right in the bed, but if I had the rocker panels done in black, I want them to stay that way.

My local line x dealer said they mix kevlar in when they do the sides to stop it from fading and they would guarantee it for as long as i own my truck. Ive never even heard of PermaTech. Ive seen several truck beds done with linex and when you wash the bed out at the carwash with soap it still looks black.

Check out the new Line-X Xtra product. It has a lifetime guarantee against fading. I just had my bed done in color-matched Flame Red, looks great. The black is guaranteed to stay black and glossy just like the day you got it. You can check out www.linexfortworthtexas.com for more info.

I have my rockers bed and top of my dually fenders done, you can really do anything, chrome would need to be stripped first. If you want a pic with the fenders done private mess me your e-mail all the pics I have of it are high resolution and wont go through on this site.

Yes...yes..and yes. Go to a Line-X and use Xtra or the UV protectant stuff. It sticks to scuffed plastic as good or better than metal.

If you any of you guys are in the Atl area I just got my bed done with proliner, wich imo is better than line x, at least around here, and I was quoted 300-350 to do the rockerS.

i got my line-x done in my bed about 2 1/2 months ago and i have beaten the crap out of it and i still only see on scratch in the liner where i threw a metal door in the bed and the edge made a little scrap not even to the metal. and it still looks like brand new i have spilled white latex paint in it and it washed right out after sitting over night. i'm extremly happy i went with line-x
