I'm thinking of Rhino Lining or Line-Xing the exterior of my shell. Has anyone done this? Pics? What are the cons?

I apologize if this is already a thread. If so please post a link.

I did rhino liner because it was cheaper. Mine is only a year old, but looks/performs great so far.

Maybe increased drag but otherwise not really any cons. Increased durability

I don't know the color of your truck or the shell but it could look tacky since your paint is smooth and the linex is textured.

My truck is black with flat black wheels. I've thought about the contrasting color between the lines shell and gloss truck. But I was thinking the wheels and tires may offset it.

I went with Line-X about 2 years ago. Was more expensive than Rhino by about $75-100, but I read better reviews on it. Overall have used fairly hard and am very pleased.

You line-x'd a shell? Do you have any pictures? I've read that linex is better quality. They also have a new product that's suppose to be for exterior applications like mine. Suppose to resist fading and have a smoother texture.

Had the rockers and bumpers done on my truck. I was a little nervous about how it was going to look on my red truck but I think it turned out great. e1ee55204c25d123118ff3a7c79aa6e0.jpg

Looks awesome. Have you noticed any fading?

Line-x can color match, do shiny or flat colors and their higher end products are guaranteed against fading.
