Hi Matt,Thanks i just don’t get why ford wouldn’t make that part removable easily.
You’ll never convince me that water can’t get past the liners. The turbulent air flowing through there at highway speed will carry any water or dirt wherever it flows. Aside from that, you can still remove the rivnuts and work through the holes to treat the back side without removing the wheel well liners.I have galvanized rivnuts installed on the Metal part of the wheel well to bolt things to inside the bed and wanted to paint the underside, which requires gaining access behind that plastic panel.
If it doesn’t let water back in there I guess it should be ok?
I imagine moisture would get back there too, but how do you remove a rivnut without drilling it out?You’ll never convince me that water can’t get past the liners.

A grinder will also work.I imagine moisture would get back there too, but how do you remove a rivnut without drilling it out?
I’m about to get line-x put down in the bed.
