Thinking about it $500 is probably pretty cheap when I think about how many hours I would spend working on it.

Yeah water does get trapped under, but really doesnt cause a problem unless your box is allreaddy scratched or rusted. Least it hasnt caused him a problem yet.
I wouldnt get a plastic boxliner though if I had to buy one. They are probably what 250ish bucks?

Chris,
There are only 2 main companies that do it. Line-X and Rhinoliner. I've seen both side by side on 2 different trucks and Line-X is a far superior product. Line-x is a much thicker product, non-slip, and more fade resistant. I was going to get a Rhinolining sprayed in my truck until I went to the Line-X dealer to get a quote.

They have a new product called Line-X Xtra. I believe it's $250 more than a standard Line-X liner. The X-tra is a color-match product. I don't think I'd pay an extra $250 for it. FYI, They quoted me $495 for a F-150 shortbox under-rail here in Burnaby.

As long as there's no rust, they will spray directly over it. I think they said they will sandblast or media blast if your bed is rusted. Once it's sprayed, it's air tight and the bed will never rust. Take a look at the photos on the link below. For you guys with drop in bed liners, take a look underneath it. Don't be surpirsed if it looks like the truck in the photo.
