Raptor bedliner sprayed R1T

What's the point here, protecting the paint? I get it for steel rigs that rust when they get scratched, but you can scratch aluminum body panels all day long without having to worry about corrosion. Take pride in your pin stripes and move on with life .

And if they did it for looks...well, to each their own. Nothing like spending money adding weight to body panels that the manufacturer specifically spec'd aluminum to save weight.

Did everyone see this? Im not sure if i like it or hate it but man someone has some balls to bed liner a brand new $80,000 truck.

Would love to know the loss due to areo and weight and do the radars still work?
Thanks Revo

Maybe just go with CARC instead? Question is, woodland camo or desert tan? Actually, now that I think about it a flat desert tan R1T might not be that bad...

I can't stand the way CARC feels on fingernails. It would drive me up a WALL.

Let me know your guy, I'd kill for a lush lawn like that.

How's the weeding?

Can we agree to disagree that it looks amazing regardless of how painful it will be on your bare knee when you scrape it against it.

Everything works perfectly and yes it was grey before. Starwood customs did this work and has done multiple vehicles for me over the years. Starwood custom paint system is one of the best in the market look them up. Lots of attention as you all have had before with driving the RT1 now just a bit more with more questions. Yes it does go off road and does great hunting. Sorry if my truck scratches your knees.. get a bandaid & suck it up.

Kevin, any idea how much weight that spray added? I'm mixed, though mostly positive, about the look, but that's gotta add some seriously good brush scratch protection.

@BigBallsinCowtown, you going to go with the same finish for the forthcoming truck nutz?

Brush scratch protection is the best with this Starwood system. We have it on the Predator Prius real working PH wagon. Lbs gain is minimal. Starwood can answer that for a typical install. It’s not as bad as you think. Don’t sacrifice on anything just get the best not the Home Depot roll on truck bed junk others are talking about.

How much of the Rivian body is aluminum? Hood? Tailgate?
