Nicely done, what other colors do they offer ?

They used the factory color code to match so I would assume they can do just about any factory color...

I just checked and they can do any colors, but mainly suggest only (4)..

I didn't take their suggestion, just told them to match mine and they did...lol

I was really interested in doing Billet silver to match mine. For now I have the BedRug XL.

I have used Line-X since 1997 on all of my trucks...they have the best product on the market. The two main ones are Line-X and Rhino but, after all the research I've done, Line-X comes out way ahead from a product perspective. Great choice @gijoe4983 and looks great!

Well you folks have me sold. As soon as I’m able to drop this truck off, I’m having that done.

I had Line-x on my 2003 and 2012 Dodge/Rams, but had only done the basic black... never disappointed except for not getting the color match, so I sprung for it this time.

How much more do they charge over the standard bedliner to do the color match?

It was 300 additional for the Xtra as the call it which is the coat that includes the color match...

I looked into Line X but in my area they want over $700 that is not color matched but the UV resistant option. The last time I had it done it was $450 granted it was 5 years ago but still I think it’s too much. I never had any issues with it though and was pretty happy with the performance. I think I am going to opt for the bed rug this time like Porboy and see how that works for half the price and a more friendly surface for my little ones when we go on a trip and they crawl around in the bed or eat lunch in there etc but the color match does look good!

Plus if it's a lease or decide to sell or upgrade to a similar newer model the bed rug can be moved or sold for another $$$$ savings. My understanding is aftermarket upgrades/accessories do not get a good return on resale. If you put in line-x and sell the truck 5 years later is there some dollar return? I think line-x is a great product, but there are plenty of options based on your needs and budget.
My 2001 Dodge 1500 SLT's bed is in fine shape. It has a bed mat and has always been covered with an Extang snap cover. I use an over sized old pool cover folded over when I'm moving dirt, concrete and gravel. If I did it everyday I'd probably go for the line-x.

I believe that's a wise choice. I installed a BedRug in my 2005; 15 years later, it still looks close to new.

Yea for that price I could go buy my own compressor and order a raptor liner kit, tint and spray it my self and save money. Think that will be the route I end up going. Then I can spray my running boards whenever I get them.

Looks like a good choice! Since my truck is white I just had them spray it black. Then covered it with a rubber mat. Learned years ago spry In liners don’t like anything thrown on them.

Wonder how the color match would look on a Bright White truck....
