Looks great Anthony, gives your truck alot flavor, I recommend a full tailgate cover , makes your tailgate indestructable.

I see Chris beat me to it.

I already have a full bedliner with the cover on the tailgate. I like the way Chris' looks though. I love shiny metal!

I've got Line-X up the tailgate too, but the full tailgate protector versus just the 'cap' is much better look, and it will protect your tailgates from dents. And yes, these tailgates CAN dent. My brother's has a huge wallop in it. Here's what the full tailgate protector looks like on my truck:

Looks good Chris. Thanks for the part numbers. Oh yeah, nice rooster!

My paint was all scuffed up and a few chips of paint were missing on my bed rails when I took the top off. How did your looks?

Same :( Scuffed, chipped in a few places, had some good dents there too. Oh and the shine on the paint had been worn off in most places. That's why I chose to get those bed rail caps. And I figured I'd get the tailgate cap while I was at it, to make it all match and look nice :)

DeeZee also makes NON diamond plate caps (just chrome) and a few other things. Check out their website to see what's available for your truck:

Man, I love those mirror finish bed rails. I just buffed my bed and it came out pretty good. Got a lot of the scuffs out, but I'm gonna end up getting those covers so i don't see the big chips of paint missing. LMC has the stainless mirror finish ones for $99. Not a bad deal.

EDIT: here is a pic of my bed and bedliner.

Bed rails look nice 'cept for those chips :( I see what you're talking about with the tailgate protector now. You've got a dropin bedliner, though you had a spray in like mine.

Yeah, I've got those chips on both sides in the same spot. Must have been something on the campershell like a rivet or something that wore right through. Bed rails look pretty good. There is a scuffed line along the entire bed rail. Its not too noticeable since I buffed them.

Yeah mine looked like hell, especially with white paint. So I was itchin' to get those bed caps ever since I took the shell off. And the great part is that if I ever put the shell back on it should be able to set right on top of the caps :)

I just got a heads up from my brother that Tractor Supply sells those bed rail caps. I'm heading there tomorrow to see what I can find.
