what do you guys think? Rhino Flares!!

I have a 96 black SR5. I am going to install a set of limited flares on it. Instead of painting it factory black, I am going to Rhino line it or line X it. What do you guys/gals think? I just think it would be a good idea, so that I do not have to worry about scratches and it make it unique too Any opinion is greatly appreciated!! Ciau!!

I'd go with a rhino liner or line-x type spray on if you aren't going to be carrying a lot of stuff that could possibly put dents in your bed (scubas/high pressure tanks) I have had that problem with my rhino liner, but it is very durable and the non-skid is definitely a plus.

That sounds like a good idea!! I am thinking about the duplicolor bed liner too, it is pretty cheap. I do not need a bullet prove liner, so anything would go. How do you like your new truck man?!!

Thanks for the input, think you misunderstand man. I am going to rhino line my fender and door flares on my truck, not the interior or bed.

Hey man the new truck is great I'm slowly gathering parts for the build up. When are you going back to OKC? We need to get a trip to BMRA together when the weather cools off.

I am in OKC already, in fact I spent 9 days in Colorado wheeling 2 weeks ago. It was awesome, I wish you and others were there too, that would be even better!!! I am up for any run now, just let me know as early as possible since I travel almost every weekend now. I am in Dallas a lot though, I will be in Dallas again tomorrow to catch a flight.

How do you like it after rhino lined them?? I am thinking about black instead of grey since my TJM is in black. Do you mind post some picture? Thanks!!

I used to work for Rhino...great stuff, but keep in mind you get what you pay for. The prep work will really nail you, so do as much of that as you can if you want to save a little.

i think they look great right now, its gonna be once they're on the truck that its gonna be decided. i think they're gonna look awesome personally but the truck wont be painted till next fall, i just happened to have a chance to get all that done really quick. i'll TRY to get some pics posted, i'll have to get a hold of a camera and find the time to get them and post them. my new job is kicking my butt (60+ hours a week) so time is gonna be tight. personally i think you'll like them, i went with gray because the truck will be white or blue, i just think the gray will compliment the color and the interior is gray as well.
