    Has anyone ever thought of or seen a fiberglass topper painted with bedliner?
    Im curious because my clearcoat is peeling on my topper and i dont wanna spend the money to have it professionally painted. if you have seen this please post a pic. it wont be the only thing bedliner, i plan on doing the rockers and my bumpers as well.




    AINT NOTHIN FINER THAN A LITTLE BEDLINER!

    Never seen one in person, but I can't imagine it would look THAT bad, especially if you use a product that doesnt have alot of texture in it. What color is the truck?

    And welcome to FFS!

    Heres the truck. the clearcoat started to peal on the topper and i tried to fix it a little but i ended up removing some paint in the process.

    yeah, a black topper would look pretty good on there, especially if you paint the bumpers and rockers!

    the rockers are already black (factory option) but im gonna bedliner them. im skeptical about painting the topper black or bedliner though because i feel that it might just end up looking ridiculous.

    You could always bed liner it and then PTM on top of the bed liner

    Black bedliner is gonna be hotter than Georgia asphalt in the summer inside that topper.
