I think mine is just the regular one.I’m getting a Line-X SIBL done on Tuesday. My options are $450 for regular or $550 for UV protection. Do you know which product you got?

It took them nearly 2 hours.That was my question as well.
Nice job. I got color matched line-X on my Oxford White Maverick-so the bed still looks white.Cause I dropped the Lux package, I have to find a place to do the SIBL. I got one shop recommended by a forum member(Frank, thank you). The Line-X shop is 30 mins from my home. And I got it done this morning. I'm very satisfied with the result. They cover most of the bed, even under the rear windows.
Being that it is -2 F here this morning, I dropped mine off yesterday at my local Line-X shop, so they could bring it in the shop overnight for spraying this morning. It will be interesting to see if these temps cause any problems afterwards.Hello! Looks great! I dropped the lux package also and planning to get the SIBL at a Local Line-X. I think after seeing your pictures I know I'm making a good decision. Going to wait for a month or two for the MIchigan winter to let up. I won't be hauling anything in the back until spring.
The same for me. However, I'm choosing to not have the dealer "farm" it out. The dealership charges $100 more than if I took the truck to LineX myself. So after I get my Maverick I'll take it in to LineX and have them do their magic. I"ll have to leave it there for the whole day and will need to go through the hassle of getting a ride back and forth to their facility. But I'll save $100.Thanks for sharing. Looks great!
My converted 22 order is in production. I will have the SIBL done before I take delivery. We have a Line-X here in town that my dealership farms out too.
Wow. Seems pretty quick. My LineX dealer said they need a full day to complete. I saw a video from the LineX company on how they do their work. From what I saw in the video, yes a full day should be required. There is a lot of prep and detail work that takes a lot of time. Better check on that 2 hour window. Must not be "LineX" and some other company. I'd be concerned about that 2 hour window.It took them nearly 2 hours.
-13 F here this morning in beautiful central MN. Windchill has it down to -23 F. I am wondering the same thing.Being that it is -2 F here this morning, I dropped mine off yesterday at my local Line-X shop, so they could bring it in the shop overnight for spraying this morning. It will be interesting to see if these temps cause any problems afterwards.

Good point. I appreciate the reply. I will call Line-X and see. ThanksThe same for me. However, I'm choosing to not have the dealer "farm" it out.

didn't notice that before, but I agree with your concern.Wow. Seems pretty quick. My LineX dealer said they need a full day to complete.

I heard that too about factory spray in liner not getting the beds paint ruffed up. Some place on this forum a member who has the factory spray in liner is seeing areas where the spray in material is bubbling up and a section not adhering to the surface. Dealer is going to take care of it of course, but the point being ruffing up the surface is necessary for the material to adhere to the bed. I dropped my factory spray in liner because of it being a constrained item. After reading about what I just described above, I’m glad I dropped the factory liner. LineX cost more, but well worth it.didn't notice that before, but I agree with your concern.
they have to unbolt all the hardware like tie-downs and either remove or mask the plastic cubby covers. then they rough up the paint; not a full removal, but it's scratched up a lot to get better adhesion for the liner. (side note: I think the factory SIBL skips this step. I could be wrong.)
I wouldn't bet against someone doing that in 2 hours, but it would be surprising. I do think 4+ is typical, that's why this type of lining costs ~$500 to apply.
