Bed liner/bed rail question?

Postby joeydude [OP] » Apr 24 2012, 2:53am

So I'm about to install diamond plate bed rails and spray my bed with raptor liner and I wasn't sure if I should spray the truck bed rails too (under the diamond plate)?

Thanks

I doubt the diamond plate will fit with the liner.

I agree with TCarr...I would put the diamond plate on then spray up to it. That way you won't have issues with fitting them on. Are you going for looks with the diamond plate or protection?

Ya I didn't think the diamond plate would fit very well with the liner sprayed under it... I'm going for protection with a nice clean look... Black diamond plate rails with a truck box to match...

I'm waiting to spray the bed before I buy the box, but I'm going with one from my local Tractor Supply.
