Practical? I guess it's more of a personnal choice thing, it's not going to stop body damage, it will help against rocks messing up the paint, but I don't see any added value or "real" protection....although the flat black kinda looks cool IMO.

Like 1yellowjk said its more of a personal choice. I'm planning on color match bed lining my exterior for the simple reason of loving the way it looks and it cuts down on the pin striping a little. I'm sure plenty of people have reasons why or why not to do it but our jeeps our money, to each their own :thumb:

My friend did his Cheby Blazer in flat black. I didn't know if I would like it till I saw it. It has been three years now, and it still looks good. He did it because it was cheaper than having it painted. Plus it takes tree scrapes pretty good.

I used to have a Samuri that I did this too. It was nice becuase I could just crash thru the bushes and not worry about scatches. I didn't get rock chips. But I wouldn't recommend doing it if you like a clean vehicle. It's not like just running it through the carwash. You have to scrub the hell out of it to get a good dull shine. lol. I'd rather have a few coats of wax and a shine smooth surface anyday unless its just a total off road vehicle.:beer:
