Bushwaker caps

I ordered bed rail caps and a tailgate cap from JCwhitney.com and my tailgate cap got here. The rail caps are coming from the manufacturer so i have to wait for those. Here are some pics of my tailgate cap:

Diamond plate it had when bought


No cap


Why it had the diamond plate cap on

looks good the only problem I am having with mine is that the double sided tape they use is wearing out. I just have the side rails tie strapped down now.

Here are links to the ones i got:

Tailgate cap

Rail Caps

The only thing i didn't like is that they ship through USPS so with them being so oversized my box was kinda beat up. The product was not damaged at all and it seems very well constructed.

I love them. I got the diamond back ones. And yes, after a year of being on the truck, the tailgate lip tape is starting to come up on me.

it goes down about an inch on the inside to help hold it down.
