    Bed liner is expensive, when I bought my tow rig, I had the rail caps done (factory spray on bed liner) and the rockers done aswell, that was 800 bucks. Then about 2 months ago, I had my steps done, because they were chipping and looking like crap, that was another 280, but I made them sandblast them and take them down to bare steel and reprimer before they lined them.

    I did my cargo trailer myself. Turned out pretty decent. Besides having to paint the walls grey, it looked like you were riding into a black hole loading the 4 wheelers after a day of riding.

    If I would of planned it out better, I would of got a different color, but I was bored and I was like "I know what I can do. Bed line my trailer" so I ran to the local napa, and all they had was black, it matches the color on the outside at least

    What brand/ round about price, how do you like them? I've been looking at them, and I like them. An easy way for the wife and I to escape for a weekend.

    We all do pretty much practically.

    All run cvt tents in various forms

    I am doing it myself..I just bought raptor liner this morning..said so in the last three posts :p

    Wow that is crazy. Glad they made it alive. I'll be interested for fun to see them perform next to my lf240s. See if the pride difference is worth it first hand. Not that I care since I got mine for cheap but still be cool to see. What beam pattern are they?

    I got some light force lights in my garage somewhere, that I'd be willing to part with for cheap (you pay for the ride and they are yours)

    Totally different light. Really the 500s suck ass with the halogen bulbs haha

    Drivings are spots. The euro is the hybrid beam.

    What kind? I could be interested. I love lights.

    Shipping is cheap. Kidding. They've set in my garage since I sold my 40, if they keep sitting there, I'll put them on something.

    I've been looking at the cvt ones, what model is yours? What kind of qc issues

    They are either 240's or 270's, I can't remember at the moment, and being 300 miles away from my garage doesn't help matters any. I'll be home mid next week, and I'll check them out, and make sure they still work.

    I was looking at the Shasta or the Rainer, both of those seem like they would be pretty alright. Did you make your own custom bed rack? Or did you buy one?
