Need Some Help on Fiberglass Bed Covers

Right now I have a Extang cover on the bed of my truck. I recently moved to Michigan Ann Arbor area and I want to get a Hard Bed Cover. What brand should I look for and what is the price range I should expect to pay? Also if any of you are from the area I am who would you recommend me to see. Thanks in Advance.

First off welcome to Michigan!!!

I got an Undercover. Cheaper, stronger & a lot lighter than your traditional hard covers. It's taken abuse and one harsh Michigan winter and looks like the day I got it. I don't think you can go wrong. Should be around $450-500 installed at your local truck accessory shops.

I have the ARE LS II for my 02 KR. It is color matched and so far no problems. It also about twice the price of dzervit's.

first off I will say I like my soft cover truxedo lo pro. but if I was to get a hard covor I would probably get the undercover like dzervit has. for the same reasons he says. I like my soft cover because it is easy to get out of the way if I need to put something too big in the back of my truck.

snug top- good quality, no-drill install, reputal long time company, I love mine really finishs my black 05 scab. shop around saved 300$ driving 20 miles. mine cost 738 plus 75 install, prices quoted by phone ranged 738 to 1150. Also the black paint on mine was perfect and totally matches. Beside all the girls like the hard better than the soft!!!!!

I have a LoRider hardcover on my 04 F150. It run about $450. Easy install, no drilling. Been through numerous hail storms here in Nebraska and not a scratch!

IMO snuglid has the best fit and look. Have own two of these and love em. Clamp mount, no drill, very low profile. Cost me $950 installed.
