    I have just the flat black powder coat..was going to do the wrinkle finish but the wrinkle finish traps dirt in the wrinkles harder to clean too

    Glossy magenta.

    Or matte black, if you want to be like everyone else.

    Pick a complimentry color.

    Cheaper than powder coat and will hold up much better. Be sure to read why its a better choice than other bedliners. Like UV tolerant and no chipped rubber.

    But holds dust likes it's getting paid to, doesn't hold up on the edges if you actually use the armor, and will take skin off if you rub against it.
