Cheers, I'm going to fully spray the front and rear bumper with the bed liner as the new front Bumper is a different colour than original and will be adding some more detailing to the sides.
 
Here it is now with the front fully painted and I've also done the back bumper.

How well does the bed liner stand up to road use? I want to paint the lowers on a pair of motorcycle forks and I need something that will last!

Sorry about the late reply! It holds up really well, I've had it on my wheels for over a year and there is no scratching or peeling. prep well and it will last a long time. Drys very quick and hard.
 
I've spayed a few parts in bed liner and so far i've been very impressed. It wasn't Halfords but a product off flea bay
 
I've been thinking of doing more but in another colour maybe green but don't want to over do it and end up with a ricer car.
I will be doing the sills and inner doors as they are now scratched up.
 
More pics of bed liners, so I decided to go full raptor Basalt grey on the body and Halfords on the black trim.

In all honesty I was going to bedliner spray both my further rear side quarter windows on my Disco 2 just as in the Freelander pic since I can't and don't use them at all while driving.
 
I'm sure I like the look of bed liner spray on the paintwork myself, but it'll definitely hide all sorts of nasties underneath, and shrug off the stone chips too.

For a working vehicle, which spends lots of time off the beaten track, I can see the advantages of a tough exterior layer of protection. I guess polishing the body is a thing of the past too.
 
It's definitely not to everyone's taste, however in the flesh it really does smarten up the paint work and yes no more polishing.
A fair few of my customers live down some ****ty tracks and private roads and it had picked up alot of pits and scratches over the last two years. A cheap and easy applied alternative to a respray with traditional paints

The autotek and Halfords aerosols are fine sprays but the Halfords spray nozel needs widening with a pin before you use it as none I've ever used worked off the bat and clogged real easy plus Halfords only ever stock two tins at a time which was a pian as I needed 8
