Anyone look into getting a color matched bedliner?

Initially I wanted to get the factory bed liner but couldn't find a gator near me that had one. I figured I would add it later.

Well a month later I'm really digging the painted color of the bed. Would be cool to have a liner that matched the paint, but I'm skeptical it'll actually match and unsure what sort of mark up it adds.

Well, for those curious I did contact a Rhino liner installer. The guy was not set up to do it, and tried to talk me out of it. I'm not sure if it was because he couldn't help me out or if he legitimately didn't think it was worth the extra price and loss of friction (he said the coating is slicker than the normal liner).

Was worth looking into but I guess I could've figured out by the complete lack of examples it wasn't practical.

I had color matched spray in bedliner in my RAM several years ago, and it started out nice, but quickly faded from the sun. It went from a nice red, to a nasty pink color in about 2 years.

Id' suggest a cover to protect it if you go that route.

You can clear coat a colored bedliner to help with fading and that chalkiness they get.

Ram, LJ,
I have a gator jt and color matched bedliner. Its cool and all but one thing i dont like is if i happen to gouge and need replacement it will be expensive. The color match bedliner uses factory paint so youd have to pay for a pint of pint for the repair shop to fix a problem, where as black doesnt take anything extra to perform the repairs.

Here you go. I got it done a year ago by a rhinoliner dealer and havent washed it in a month, currently camping so its a bit dirty.
