Wow, I didn't notice that. 92xjguy you need to fix that angle. You want the angle in the opposite direction

I useds duplicolor. Got at O'Reilly's I don't have to pay taxes and get a good discount so I buy everything I can from there. All the spray bedliners are about the same quality.

Right after I done it.

Looks great! I did the same to mine (my paint line is lower though) back in May and it makes a HUGE difference on how good it looks with the doors off.
