So I was inspired by a previous thread about bed lined fenders and tired of scratches from tree limbs and bushes on the trail so...


Removing the fenders was tricky. There was a BUNCH of plastic snaps and clips i really didn't want to break.


Three coats of spray bed liner so far (after wet sanding of course). I'll do at least one more before replacing them tomorrow. I'll post pics when i get them back on.

damn. sorry for the HUGE pics

 

I have no experience with painting vehicles, let alone the liner stuff, so excuse my ignorance; but could this have still been done by just taping off and covering the rest of the vehicle while you painted the fenders?

 

Well i could have and thought about it but after looking closer at the fenders I decided I would get a better result by removing the fenders. It was easier to get in the "nooks and crannys" this way.

a hummer looks funny without fenders

 

Pretty much the exact look i was going for.


What do you all think?
Next up are the door handles, mirrors and possibly the grill.

 

What brand/type rattle can, did you spray them with?

 

very nice,,very tempting

rubber ? trim strip?

think id settle for on car spray tho

Looks great! The more pics like this I see the more i'm becoming convinced to do this also.

 

Duplicolor Bed liner spray from Advance. $9.85
I've had good luck with it before. I painted the bumpers on my 72 Bronco with it two years ago and it still looks good.

4 coats in about 3 1/2 cans
