Looking good.

One down side to that stuff in the engine bay. It will make it a pain to keep clean (dust wise). If you're **** retentive about that, you want gloss paint. MUCH easier to keep clean.

I look forward to more pictures...

I have to disagree with that, from experience. The bedliner is some tough **** and you can powerwash it all day long. If it gets greasy, (though none of us have oil leaks, right), a little degreaser and it will clean up better and easier than paint. On my 2nd gen, it has gotten to the point that the oem paint is fading in the engine bay from degreasers and powerwashing, won't happen with the bed liner.

The nice thing about this stuff is how easy it is to apply, most any idiot that knows how to use a spray can can do a decent job, no special equipment required, unless you buy it by the gallon and use the suction sprayer.

If you want to be really ****, it can be waxed.
