Has anyone had their RL bumpers, mirrors, lower rocker panel, grille, or other parts sprayed with Line-X?

Post pictures & share your experience if you have. Thanks.

 

MOST people dont do this to their passenger sedan luxury cars.
i've seen some people do it to their beaters..
and of course i've seen trucks do it.

but if you are asking the Acura crowd, or the semi-sport-entry-level luxury car segment, we'll tell you..NO that's crazy talk to rhino-line bumpers

but really it's not all that different than having a steady hand and spray consistently....as that's what I think you are really asking for....

if you want the line-x/rhino lined bumper....buy a can and test it out!!!!!!

 

I'm looking for enhanced ding resistance, and I would pay the pro's to spray it.

 

i've had my previous truck bedliners sprayed by the pros!
call some local companies and ask!!

 

Err.. Clear bra or something would be my go to method, but honestly on a 19 year old RL, just live with it buddy..

 

I know it can be done... I want to see if anyone has done this with their RL.

 

NO! because that's crazy talk!!!!!!!!

who the fuck rhino lines passenger car bumpers!?!?!?
but then again, ive seen it done on beaters and trucks!

 

General appearance is a concern, but enhanced ding/dent protection, a reduction in touching up nicks in the paint, and waxing are what I'm looking for.

 

Crazy talk suits me well.

 

Sounds like a logical idea Rex, no one has done it yet but doesn't mean you can't be the first!


In for pics when you get it all done!!

 

Git-R-Done!!!
would love to see pics of yours all rhino'd out!

 

Honestly if you are just looking for "Ding protection" clear vinyl wrap does the trick without making your car look like it was driven through concrete.

 

Wow. Well, this was an interesting read... Just a suggestion here, they make clear films for this very problem. I have no clue as to how much Line-X would cost for an entire car to even chip in on what's more cost conscious considering your car' age... Interestingly enough, I googled this and Line-Xing an entire car has been done before.

 

I have decided to leave the exterior as is, I'll just clean & wax often ... NO LINE-X on my RL!!

 

I'm detailing my 2000 RL tomorrow (I do it every six months), and I find it is good therapy. My RL and I bond as one through the process and when I'm done I can step back and actually see the results of my labor. It also allows me to notice things I might ordinarily miss when not paying close attention to my 17 y/o vehicle. You can't find a car this well-built at a reasonable price anymore except as used cars and the first gens are rapidly disappearing (as are OEM and aftermarket parts), so if a little TLC is what's required to keep these great looking boulevard cruisers on the road it's well worth it in my humble opinion.

 

The only 'damage' on my '98 is found on the plastic bumper covers... I would be happy if I found somebody that could repair & refinish them to match the rest of the car.

 

Three hours effort on a Saturday afternoon.

 

pline x rhino liner, whatever yo call it, will only make the RL look like a lump of doo doo. DONT DO IT. If you want to patch up the bumpers, blastic dip them.
I have seen the linex in person, looks like a boy racer was bored out of his mind and messed up his ride.

 

I happen to like the look of Line-X, but I was also an early adopter because I had some of the exterior on my truck done in the 90's.
To each his own.
