Should I diy bedliner the whole box/inside of fenders?

So I have my box all torn apart and am about to use the diy bedliner on the bed walls, inside of the body panels, very bottom of rocker panels, top and bottom of the wheel housings, the exterior panel between the box and cab etc... Pretty much everywhere except the exterior panels on the sides. Anyone think I'm making a mistake lol?

Sorry for the crap iPhone pic

Re: Should I diy bedliner the whole box/inside of fenders?

Btw the product I am thinking of using is the duplicolor bed armor. Will also be installing new wood bed and strips. I am a little worried about this much bedliner everywhere, but the reviews of the duplicor seem decent. Any input is appreciated

If you're doing it for you and plan to use it like a truck....should work out well. If you plan to or think you might sell it down the road, consider that many see bedliner and assume rust was covered.

That being said, I am going to put a roll in bedliner in my truck

I plan to keep the truck for a while and perhaps some good photos are in order just to show the rust isn't to bad if I do plan to sell. Bedliner the panel up against the cab too? Anyone done this?

Good point on the bolts, I will try to keeps the coats thin on areas where fastaners are needed.
