Default New Tonneau Cover

I got my Armor Lid installed today and it turned out nice. Cheaper the fiberglass and lighter but better protection than the soft tonneau covers.

Nice truck! Are your wheels painted or powder coated? The lid looks good but the texture of it does not match well with the rest of the truck. But they are better than the cloths one for sure! Are they heavy?

Thanks. The wheels are powder coated and the cover weight is around 50lbs. I dont care for the texture much either but it will do for now.

Sweet looking rig! If you wanna be a pioneer and do something no-one else has done, sand down the tonneau cover a good bit to get rid of the texture and paint it to match the truck.

thanks guys for the input...never thought about sanding it down but that might be something I look into when I get home from Afganistan...I got a few engine and suspension mods that I want to do before I leave.
