I just did mine the other night...I'll try and get pics up later...gotta go plumb a fuel system!  I went my usual route with bedliner...it looks great (imo), it is tough, it seals and locks out moisture, and did I mention it was tough?!

Yes, the frame rails were coated with POR15, hence the high gloss.  I'm more a fan of the flatter tone in the wheel wells, but after spending all that time on the trunk floor, I'm willing to deal with some shine to hopefully prevent future rust.

My front end is still relatively as I inherited it.  I did clean up the inner fenders a bit and shot them with a flat black, but this was back in the day before I had a camera, lol.  I am personally a fan of flat and semi gloss black, just works with my color combo.  If the car isn't a concourse #s matching resto I'd do what you want and what you think would look best.  I've thought about some hammertone finishes for the front stuff, but haven't gotten back to that side of the car just yet.

Hope the wheel well shot helps out some and sorry about not having detailed front end pics.

Corpus Christi....on the Gulf coast where everything likes to rust!!!...lol

TexasStroker

Quite a large concentration of Chargers down that direction if nothing else, lol.  If you ever feel like a 12+hr road trip you are welcome to come up this direction and check out some of the Chargers in Amarillo Area Mopars...That would be a very nice test for the wheel wells  ;D
