So i talked to the line-x rep and they said it will most likely melt if its on the underside, also they said it has no heat distribution properties. So from what i gathered from them its a bad idea.

Isn't rhino lining pretty heavy? I mean, i don't think it's enough to make a substantial difference, but i was under the impression that it weighed a significant amount.

Subiel94 painted below the door trim on his car black, it can give you an idea of how it looks and theres a thread in the pictures and multimeida area. Also, in this picture is the outback with the lower half rhinolined, the outback is behind my car so its kinda hard to see but the lower half is rhinolined. Picture was taken at WCSS 12.
