So I went to the 2009 Good Guys Car Show her in northern california, last weekend and I saw the most amazing and bad A$$ exterior mod I have ever seen in my life......a company called "Extreme Motorsports" in Brentwood, CA rino lined the whole exterior of a customized Ford F250.
Needless to say I was sold by the mod. I have emailed the guy I talked to at the show to find out some info on pricing and maybe sponsorship.
If I got this on my WK I would be the first once again for a new mod.
Damn, Damn, Damn......
I'd check on the weight of that stuff if you plan on covering the whole Jeep. Also look into just how easy/hard it is to clean. If you do it, we want to see the pics!
The guy said its a simple wash...just pressure wash and it will never come off, lol. Im pretty sure it would add an addition 50-75lbs. No biggy b/c i dont plan of racing my jeep just showing.
Depending on the type of vehicle, this could be really cool. I have no doubt it would be really easy upkeep. Pressure hose and that's about all you'd need. Unless it was improperly sprayed, I can't imagine it flaking off easy at all.
WK street Jeep? Not feeling it, but an off-road or lifted Jeep would look good.
this is nothing new, ALOT of offroad vehicles do it. i actually worked on a Line-x sponsored truck that had about $20,000 worth of line-x on it. they even offer a custom color option, with the ability to do art work in the truck beds, or glow in the dark.
true, but if someone did this i would recommend not using real rhino liner, go with a different brand, rhino last i have always seen fades. theirs one my brother had i think it was called speed liner or something, ill find out. but it was ink black for the 2 years he had the truck
I have seen a WK painted with Rhino Liner. It looked OK and the paint was like a dark blue which I didn't even know the Rhino Liner could come with colors.
Rhino is some good stuff, i been holding off on it but i will be doing all of my armor since the powdercoat isn't that great, for some reason it is rusting and i am not liking it.
I think it would absolutely kill the resale value, unless to plan to keep it forever. Seems like that stuff scuffs easily as well. Another drawback may be that the Engine compartment would probably retain more heat.
