Line X, or Rhino Lined Cladding... How much did you spend?

[taylorRichie]

Finally got around to getting some details on this. Estimate came out pretty cheap. IMO.

First I got quotes for SpeedLiner Since I couldn't find a close Line X dealer. And I did some research and found a lot of people who have had both Line X and Speedliner, and say they would recommend either. Rhino is just too gritty and inconsistent (IMO).

So my quote includes the Removal, and Reinstallation of all the cladding (they don't know what they're getting themselves into) and the spraying of speedliner, for $1060 total.

The good thing is they're a collision repair center, so they should be more than qualified to do it "right".

Not sure when I'll be able to do it, but I'll probably go in with the actual vehicle and make sure their quote stands when they see the vehicle in person. (I only sent a picture of the VX)

i had mine done with colored liine x about 2-3 years ago, got the whole cladding done for $450 including the hood insert. Now they want $225 just for the rear bumper. they said cause its a fuel based product so price is crazy now. theres a pic in my gallery but dont know how to link it here

just make sure you check out some of the other vehicles they've worked on...

I've seen many "professionals" that do horrible work...

I'm glad you're only doing the cladding... personally I don't care for ANY durable liner type paint on anything but hidden surfaces, I do see the benefit if you off road a lot though.

I've never seen a truck with that stuff on the body that I thought looked good... but that's just me.

Personally if I were to cover up the fading and scratches I'd simply get the cladding painted, either to match the body or in black for a 2-tone effect. The few FULLY painted VXs I've seen looked really slick IMO.

I totally agree, Tom's front cladding + bra looks pretty unique, but for the most part I would just do the lining on the wheel wells and anything that is hidden, never on a body panel or cladding. Painted cladding does look pretty good though.

How in the world did you not end up on the side of the VX? Wow

[taylorRichie]

Yeah I already offroad enough that I'd consider doing the entire vehicle, in fact I WOULD do it if it wasn't so pricey. I have plenty of scratches from offroad, and with my offset I'm sure I'll get plenty of rock chips as well.

I want my car as an offroad vehicle, not a show car.

Patrick That video was awesome and your VX looks awesome, but I'd recommend tagging your video with Vehicross, so the rest of us can find it in the future

CRAZY!!!
thats what that video was!!!
it looked like u have no fear of rolling it!
U R AWESOME!!!!!!

[tomdietrying]

Like I said before....Great video!

I was checking it out again, and I couldn't figure out what was on the hood. Is it a picture of flames, but then again it looked like it was something 3-D. What is that?
Peace.
