All i have to say is spray on bedliner...Duplicolor has it in aerosol cans and i resprayed almost all the plastic on my Xterra, we call it the "stealth mod". Stuff holds up great. The prep is a bitch but done right...you'll wonder why you didn't do it to begin with.

As mentioned before, i'd scrap the plastic bedliner and get a spray in..that's just me, however, looks like you may have had that on a while and you could have bedliner scraps underneath the top of the bed wall covers.

On my Jeep before I bedlined the hell out of it, i used this stuff put out by Nasa used on Aircraft plastics called Plexus Plastic Cleaner/sealer. Can't beat it to seal and renew your black plastic car parts.

I have a spray on bed liner in my truck, I love it so much that it will be the first thing I do to my next truck. I've heard stories of those plastic bed liners and of how the thing will rub the paint off over time, even on top of the railing which sucks. Then after some more time, the bed starts to rust with all the water that got trapped underneath it. When I got my truck, I had no liner of any sort. It was all rusty, I had it sprayed and the thing looks beautiful even a couple years later. It's also durable as hell.
