I had may bed sprayed with Line-X recently and I also put on a Toyota skid plate. I know it doesn't offer much protection, but it looks good.

I had them spray the liner on the top of the rail. I didn't want them coming down the side of the bed.

 

Agreed, it does look good
Top job mate!

 

Looks real good! I like how the skidplate goes with colour of your Taco'.

 

Looking nice!!

 

Thanks! I guess I'm pretty much done with the mods for now.

 

linex is soo sweet

Definitely makes the tacoma look much better w/ that skid there!!

 

What are the differences in Line-X and Rhino Lining? I have been lookin into gettin the sides of my rear bumper lined with something to protect the chrome until I can get my aftermarket rear bumper.

Whatever is cheap and will last a good few years would be awesome! I may also get the body panels on the bottom of the driver and passenger side front doors to protect the paint.

Thanks guys,

Fink

 

If it's only temporary, I would get the do it yourself stuff. In my opinion Line-X is better than Rhino, but some peole like Rhino better.

The difference between the two is that Line-x is more dense and not as fluffy. It is also supposed to be stronger and more resistant to cuts and gouges. It's definitley very grippy.

 

yea, thats what they (we) all say

 

Looks good and I really like the skidplate.

 

take n' ez with that skid plate when offroading. Better yet, take it off. They are soft as coke cans, mine is in the trash crumbled up. taco's look good with it.

 

For as much wheeling as I do, I shouldn't have a problem with it. If it gets dented, it gets dented. I definitely like the way it looks, though.

 

If you don't mind me asking, how much did it all cost?

The thing is, I don't know how long its gonna be til I get the new bumper...I will end up getting an ARB/TJM for the front before the rear so its gonna be a good while.

Thanks for the info/advice,

Fink

 

Looks great. I got my bed line-x'ed a couple of weeks ago and it looks awesome! Way better then any drop in liner. Over the rail is the way to go. After tax, I paid $399 for mine, which was the cheapest I could find in the Denver Area. Most places wanted $500.

btw, where did you get that skid plate? Is it from a 4Runner?

 

Thats not too bad, Rhino lining was $435 for my dads 8 foot bed on his Chevy...

Yeah, no kidding. I just found another way to spend money today.

I just wish I had some money to spend.

 

looks good. i get mined line-x on thurs. i want them to come over the lip of the tailgate alittle more than on yours. i had the factory bedliner, which rub and scratched the paint- i need to hide it with the line-x!

 

yeah, they can dent easy, but then again they can be straightened out easily too. i know both from experience. but i'll say it does look pretty good on there right now, esp for how you're gonna use your taco. and the line-x is a step up too.

 

That's a Toyota skid plate made for the Taco. I got it on Ebay for $90. It might fit a 'Runner, though.
