Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to prep or paint this cap before installing?
The cap ships in primer-ready finish. Most buyers prime and paint to match their truck bed or tailgate. If you plan to leave it unpainted, a clear coat will slow oxidation. Either way, clean the surface before installation to ensure a secure fit.
What hardware do I need to bolt this down?
The cap uses factory tailgate mounting holes, so you'll be working with your truck's existing fastener pattern. Grab a socket set and refer to your vehicle service manual for torque specs. Fasteners are not included with the cap.
Can I remove this later without damage?
Yes. Bolt-on design means you unbolt it cleanly if you ever want to remove it. No adhesive, no permanent modification—the tailgate stays stock underneath.
