Before and after pictures of drop in bed liner.

First off, it's a 94 with the 2.2L. I know it's nothing special but I'm posting some pictures for people who are contemplating a bed liner or a spray in vs. plastic.

I ordered from Noble Truck Accessories here in Modesto for $199, $215 with tax. They had to order it, got it the next day. Got my tinting done from a small place off of Crowslanding a while ago before I got the liner. Found a clean white tailgate that matched my truck off Craigslist for $150. I also got new license plates for $19 at DMV. The old ones were dented and scratched to hell in the rear. Also have a rollpan ordered from Grant Kustomz, should be here soon. I ordered Saturday. It's a bolt on with the license plate with light in the middle. I'm gonna get that prepped and painted white. In the last two pictures, I think you can see my old bumper. Luckly the tar(?) or black stuff is only on the corner piece that comes off when you replace the bumper so I lucked out. You can also see my new clean tailgate. I have 17x8 Cragar Soft 8's ordered from Summit Racing. Ordered those Saturday as well. I got my center caps for those in the mail yesterday so the wheels should be any day. I still have to buy tires for those, still need to look up what size looks best with a 5/6 drop.

I'll definitely post more pictures when I get the new rollpan and wheels on. I also plan on debadging the truck as well. After that, I'm gonna order some lowering parts to do a 5/6 drop. Probably will be 2 weeks from now when I can get the money for that.

Post what you guys think or any ideas! Thanks.

Some before pictures (no tinting/no bedliner/old tailgate):

These first two pictures are the day I got it.




Taking a trip to La Grange with some friends. We took a Dakota for the other quad.


The bed when I first got it. Notice the small holes, I think previous owner had a ladder rack.


Some after pics (tinted windows/new tailgate/new bedliner):

Re: Before and after pictures of drop in bed liner.

I screwed a piece of carpet to the floor but now when ever i get water in under the bed cover it smells and takes forever to dry out. Im prob going to get that do it yourself bed liner, my bed should be good looking underneth the plastic liner because its been in since it came from the dealership

Re: Before and after pictures of drop in bed liner.

where are you located alarm? i'm just curious, it's already to late anyways.

also don't do the DIY liner, it's pretty much crap from what i've heard. if my bed wasn't damaged like mine, i would have left it alone

Re: Before and after pictures of drop in bed liner.

the DIY liner is fine, it works much better than the plastic drop in liner, plus you can color match your truck....and its fairly cheap

Re: Before and after pictures of drop in bed liner.

I have used a lot of the raptor stuff from Upol. But I'd never do a bed with it. Its to glossy and gets pretty hard. I have sprayed many wheel wells, trunk floors, and floor pans with it though. Mainly for cosmetics, its pretty thin and doubt it does much for sound deadning.

list WAS $260 years back,but i got it for $160...and you need a pressurized 'undercoating' gun because your typical undercoating gun will not spray it....let me find a pic of how tough this shit is
