Then cut to fit for each wheel well (given how they curve, you might need 6-8 different pieces that you put together like an upside down jigsaw puzzle). Clean the inner wheelwells very thoroughly with wax & grease remover, then start on one end and use 3M spray adhesive (contact cement in a can). Trim to within 1/4" of the wheel well lip. And once dry, mask everything off (including the outer painted lip) and spray on 2-3 coats of any rubberized bed liner (I used some from Blue Magic and it worked great).

I will admit that it's a bit of a job and you can kill a whole weekend doing it right. But it works!

Good luck,
