    If might be more than you want to spend but look up the nearest line-x dealer and see what they would charge to spray them. You can get the buy it yourself route but the line-x is an awesome product.

    i really dont like the idea of bedliner myself...as theyre meant to get hit and dinged etc and spray paint is so much easier to touch up...

    plus when im wearing shorts my legs brush the tube and the paint is smoother

    Thats a good point tiger! I did not think of that plus take tigers advise, he has and uses the hell out of his. I rarely head offroad so I look at the perspective of how it looks.

    the rattle can bedliner is a good look, but chipps very easy, make sure you prep it very well and put many coats of the paint.. like 5 or 6

    also, The rattle can stuff is not really that durable, more like textured paint, Herculiner would be a good bet as it is very durable.

    Just finished priming them. Now getting ready to do the duplicolor bed liner spray.

    Do you guys think I should have primed them? On the duplicolor can it says to apply to bare metal. I hope I didn't screw up spraying primer first.

    I would have just light sanded them and then sprayed with bed liner.

    The primer would have been good for paint but light sand it again and go from there make sure you clean the hell out of all the paint shavings

    I just left it primed since it's rust resistant. I finished it all just now came out really nice I must say :) I hope this stuff dries rock hard since it's kinda pliable right now. Might not have helped that it was cold out while spraying. I'll post pics soon.

    Just let them sit over night in my cold garage? Will that be sufficient enough? I plan to weld them on tomorrow around 11am ish.

    I think any set that fits the double cab short bed should work on the Access cab. They're the same wheel base.

    trail gear says they will fit an access cab. I just installed them and they fit perfect. Good strength as well. Only had to cut off 2 of those rivet bumps one on each side for the gussetts to lay flush. I will post pics soon of the before and after. I did some of the welding myself it was fun ;)
