best looking hard bed cover

I'm thinking of buying a bed cover and was wondering who has the best looking one. I would prefer a hard cover, not sure if I would have to have it painted or if it already comes painted the color of my truck

IMO the A.R.E. LSII series is the best looking and is what I've been wanting to get for my truck. A lot of people have problems with the carpet rubbing through the paint on the bed though. My dad has one on his truck and it took the paint off of the tailgate.

If you can get one without carpet though, I don't *think* you'll have any problems.

On my truck with it's bright red and grey colors and black accents (it's a flareside), the Undercover in black with pebble grain texture wins hands down.



On your truck, a wide bed .... maybe a heavy Leer F-glass 700 in body color fills the bill ..... but they are heavy. I like the Undercover SE or SE "smooth" (smooth and paintable) with it's molded in small rear ducktail lip? Much lighter than the Leer, easier to remove and store.

I was leaning towards the undercover SE or SE smooth. I don't really know the difference between the 2 but whatever I do I would like to paint it. I would like see someone with the undercover. where did you purchase yours from

I will go snap a picture right now. It is dirty due to the storm we had a few days ago, but I love my bed cover.

UnderCover has pics on facebook as well. Should have mine on this weekend! I got the classic of of CL.

If you want to paint the cover you have to get the SE smooth... BUT they are fixing to release a paint able CLassic.

Next month they are releasing a foldable tonneau. Similar to harley's.
