I was considering putting rhino liner on my bumpers and fender flares possibly even lower part of my doors and was wondering if anyone else has done it and if so how does it hold up?

I have black wheels with black emblems and grille so I would think it would look nice but who knows. Thank you for the link! Looking into it now
 
It would be cool, but if you do it do not use Herculiner or any other store bought product. The sun willfade it and make it dull and ugly. Have it professionally done like with Rhino. LineX tends to dull more also from what I have seen.

What have you heard about Herculiner?

Its crap!! I use it on my hitch receiver to prevent rust and keep it looking better. Hate it when all those vehicles still look nice, but have rusty hitches. safety chains will where the Herculiner off rather quickly and it turns to a very dull and slightly faded black. I would never use that as a bed liner or any other part of my rig except the hitch. Used it on my previous truck as the front fender was painted and got rusty. It looked good at first, but after 2 years I could not stand the dull faded look so I added another coat to freshen it up. That looked terrible so the following year I ground it all off and started over again. This was and old and high mileage truck so I went the cheap route. Had it been newer it would have gotten powder coated.
 
Damn... I'm really interested in doing my bumper and flares with Bedliner I just need to find the right product. Clearly herculiner is no longer an option

IH8MUD has tons of reviews on herculiner, bottom line it is crap. It uses small pieces from recycled tires to make the bedliner affect, after a while these pieces of rubber start coming off and the liner also fades within the year. Monstaliner is what a lot of people turn to for its quality and price. If I were to go with DIY bed liner I would choose monstaliner.
 
I've seen a few people line'x their bumpers and fender flares and I really liked it(lots of different opinions). I've been wanting to line'x mine since I bought it but I figure I may as well wait until they get worse(faded). If I find the ones coated I'll post some pictures up here.
 
Monstaliner seems to be the most durable, is uv stable so it doesn't fade, and man dies that stuff bond!! Make sure you use a plastic bonding enhancer product like you would with regular paint though. Plastic isn't friendly.
Those guys hit the nail on the head with the herculiner. It fades, chips, falls off, it's just crappy all around. I've heard good things about line-x, but it's much more expensive.
