How many "pimples" did you have to repair on the fenders? My point being that there likely wasn't any because the steel is so very heavy. When I see other fenders that I've salvaged, they too are also pimple free.

If you want to apply bedliner on the inside of a fender, there's no negative affects that I would be concerned about except it's a waste of money and may in fact be a little harder to keep clean because a smooth surface doesn't hold grime like a rough surface.

Epoxy primer is required under any coating. Bedliner is NOT a rust corrosion coating as many seem to believe.
