Yeah, we picked it up about a month and a half ago so we haven't had it long. We had to get her a vehicle that was stock height because she's only 5'2" and 27 weeks pregnant so it's getting a bit harder for her to get in and out of mine, I'm 6'6" and I need to climb up in mine.

Looks good. Nothing too crazy and "loud" but sleek and real clean looking.

A friend of mine works at line-x, we removed the cladding and front cover. Sprayed both sides with the premium coating, this is not too glossy and has good texture.

God I so wanted to Line-X my caddling but it was way to expensive for me so I spray painted mine. Like $150 a side. That looks so freakin' sweet. Maybe later down the road...

Man, I love the looks of your Trac, great stance.

Line-X is much better than Rhino-liner IMO. Rhino is too soft and easy to tear/rip.

Thanks!!!! Lots of sweet tracs on here, good site.

The line x is tuff, had it sprayed less than 2 weeks and wouldn't you know backed into a guard rail at a gas station. It hit hard and the rear bumper actually went over the top. A small scuff that you can barley see was the damage.
