yah takes a third of a gal maybe. Prolly less, just think of the size of the bed versus just getn those lower panels. Also to do a proper job you'll need to remove your rear bumper, but that isn't hard. Also try to sand down the rust and prime it because you'll just be sealing it in if u dont deal with it.

I have an 04 with the fender flares that match up to the bumper should I get these sprayed as well? and the bumpers too? or would it look ok with just getting the rocker panels look good?

get er done, just did mine 4 weeks ago and it looks marvelous, not only you protect it from chips and most road damage, but you now have rust protection too.

as for the tailgate folks, when getting it professionally done, don't just do the inside of the tailgate, do every part of the inside of the tailgate, this will take care of any future possible rust problems you normally would encounter had you not don't this, the nobly part you don't beeline is the outside of the tailgate, well for me the bottom part of the outside was done also.

to bad you were not in the sacramento area, I would have you bring your ranger in, show you how to mask it off and shoot it professionally for you, of course you could do some work around the shop to pay it off. :)
