i wanted to place my logo in the bed before the rhino liner goes on... any ideas what to use underneath?
-
Do you want it raised? If you have access, you could cut it out of a sheet of metal and weld it to the floor...

yeah raised, but not too far up off the bed that way i can still load a bike in there and not have any issues...

I would definately use some self etching primer on both suffaces or some type of rust prohibitor first.
-
When I eventually get to mine, I want to put the bowtie in the front of the bed rather than the floor.

that's really not a badidea.. i might have to bite. i need it to not interfere with bikes being loaded in the back until i get a trailer... might be easier no?

Most of the Experienced Bed Lining Companies can just spray the logo on, using a removable template that won't leave anything but the desired pattern.....

I like the idea of a raised logo rather than a sprayed on one, though if I were to put one down on the bed itself, I'd definitely do just the color difference. If you do have one put in front of the bed under the rear window, let me know how you do it and post pics! I'm guessing paint and all that isn't going to happen on mine until at least next summer.

T'anks Capn! EXACTLY the look I was going for...well...not a Patriots logo but...
-
Why not cut the logo out of 1/8" or 1/4" abs plastic and epoxy it to the bed wall? Won't rust on you.

somoene suggested pvc too... i think i'll go that way. less wory about stuff rusting later..
