Default bedline the entire jeep?

alright i've searched and i can't find the thread where the whole jeep is bedlined. maybe some of you guys can find it idk.

anyways i'm thinking about bedlining because the scratches i get on the trail are getting really deep and i'm afraid of rusting the jeep. my questions are:

1. have you seen a bedlined jeep? not just the top or the grill. i mean the whole thing

2. do you think it would look good?

I know it's been talked about a lot...but to my knowledge, I don't think it's been done.....that I remember. That and two bucks will get you a cup of coffee.

I wish I had taken a picture of the one I saw in south Texas but I sadly I didn't. The whole Jeep was bedlined and honestly it looked fantastic! It really made me consider doing it myself but I think I'll wait until I do a bit more damage to mine and then go for it. I think you'll like the look

It was just regular matte black. I've wanted to paint mine matte black for a while and I really liked the way this one looked.

I did the entire interior, underside and frame of a 1986 Bronco II.

It was a ton of work and a lot of fun. But for me it wasn't worth the hassle-I smashed into a low hanging cherry tree limb while offroading. It crushed the cab and smashed the glass. The body shop told me to go away. So it went to the junkyard.

But I bet there are some rust free spots!

I dunno, man. I think your Jeep would look great bedlined, I have even caught myself thinking about it.

But I've been there & done that on a different vehicle, so I don't have the itch to do it on the JK like you.

I'd rather spend the time & money on other mods, but post some pics if you choose to line it! Good luck.

I dunno, it looks better than I thought but doesn't seem worth the effort or $$

I looks pretty good, agree that the wide BW flares dont cut it.

I was also considering either olive or dessert beige in a semi-gloss.
