door molding removed!!

Been debating this for a while. Since it was close to 90 deg. today I decided now was the time. Just used a little bit of the natural solar heat gun, started peeling. followed up by a light hand wash of the area, then claybar, clean, polish and wax. I think i like the look now.....anyone need white door molding??

The have velcro type as well, better than a zipper IMO

If I have to use the bed, the new one come right off in one piece, no snaps to undo. Has a separate frame inside a frame deal, it's cool and easy.

I have a truxedo low profile, its all velcro with a locking bar at the end, pop a lever, the bar pops up and all you do is roll it forward, one of the easiest to use tonneau covers I've ever seen, AND it has a lifetime warranty.
