### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Working great
  

*by E***J on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 29, 2018*

Fits and looks good. This does not cover 100% of the original plastic cover and mounts directly over the original. So if the original is chewed up you will have to clean it up before installing. Our truck is used as a truck I have the diamond plate guards all the way around the bed and am very happy with how they hold up and look.

Does not fit good over factory plastic piece as advertised, and tape does nothing for it, I ended up reshaping it to fit and screwed it on, also it is about 1/2" too short to cover the plastic piece. I would not recommend this cap
