    That's what I will probably do when mine get really scratched or faded. I have Raptor lined a lot of things and it works really well.

    I assume you’d take the flares off for this? Raptor liner is definitely an idea and probably way cheaper than replacing lol.

    I would yes. It doesn't come off most things very well. Herculiner either apparently if you are familiar with the infamous "Herculiner on my Hootus" incident. Would probably take some scuffing and a primer to stick really well to plastic, but I can't say as I have done fiberglass and metal only. I'd also spray it. I have rolled and sprayed and spray is definitely a nicer finish once you get your pressure tuned. You would want to mask the back off so it fits right when you are done as it builds up fairly thick.
