My A.R.E. Tonneau Cover

Postby B Cubed [OP] » Feb 05 2012, 12:05pm

Finally got some nice weather so I thought I would post a couple of pix of my A.R.E. Tonneau cover. A big THANK YOU goes out to the good folks at Pro-Trim of Ohio for the install.

If the rain we've had this winter were snow we'd have about 10 feet or more on the ground right now.

The cover was $950 plus $199 for the stripes. I was going to go with a factory cover but the salesman at my dealership told me to go with the A.R.E. instead. He said it's less expensive and fits better than the factory covers.

Looks good. I was just sitting here trying to figure out how to build one like that.

Looks great! I think a cowl-induction hood would match that nicely :twisted:.

Looks awesome. And, it's nice to hear about an honest sales guy, too!

You know... I thought the same thing the first time I saw it after the installation. HA! The wife would have a fit. :lol:
