Downside to non-factory bedliner?

[emceerice]

Looking for my first Raptor and am searching for one with bedliner but have a potential vehicle available that doesn't have one. Aside from having to deal with actually bringing it to a shop for a Line-x spray in, any other downsides from folks here that have experience? Losing the Ford logo. Old posts say Line-x has slightly higher quality. Small cost difference.

No probs with Line-X on my gen 2 @ seven years in hot and extreme cold. That’s the day it was installed.



The day I had mine sprayed, there was a steady stream of trucks from a nearby dealer.

Look for a good installer.

I've had a number of my truck beds sprayed with lineX over the years. Always top notch service and quality work.

Ive seem fantastic results from line-x . I wouldn't hesitate.

The factory bed liner kinda sucks. They don’t prep the bed surface correctly and it will peal of the clear coat. Line x is a far superior installation.

I was about to to say, I'd actually prefer to have Line-X instead of the factory liner.

Line-X is going to be much better than Ford factory. Even 2 Ford reps suggested going with something other than factory.

Both of my Raptors were Line-X and never an issue.

Anybody use DualLiner or Lasfit? Thinking of getting a Lasfit liner in the meantime.

Had Line-X on my 2018 and it was definitely better but they removed the bed bolts and overspray got on the spare tire. Next time I would remove the spare before the application. My 2023 has the Ford OEM liner and the bolts are coated but behind the boxlink brackets are not sprayed. Because I have a white truck this really stands out. Line-X will remove the brackets and spray behind the boxlink as well.
