Bedliner paint job effects on wind

I bought an old suzuki samurai and it has what I call a "high school paint job." Where someone just rolled bedliner over the entire thing. With the rough surface everywhere it got me thinking about how much that would potentially effect the wind resistance. I know some studies that say putting golf ball dimples on a car can help but I assume a rough and inconsistent pattern of which a bedliner paint job I think could really hurt your drag and not help. Any guesses by how much?
