im going to order a tanau (sp?) cover this coming week and i really like the innovations fiberglass one. do any of you guys who have it experience any rubbing on the paint or have anything negative to say about them?

also, does anyone have the website where i can get a shaker hood?

thanx...chris

 

I love mine!!!

 

did you order it and install it yourself, or did you have it put on? also, how hard is it to remove?

thanx...chris

 

Ah, thats my favorite cover!

I had a little bit of rubbing that was my fault. When you pull down your tailgate, you notice those little rubber feet things on the inside where the tailgate secures to the inside of the bed towards the top? If those little rubber feet get in the way when you close the tail, it will throw the alignment off with the tailgate and the rest of the body, causing rubbing. Though its minor, i still notice it.

Other then that, it is thee far best tonneau one can get for the Lightning. It totally completes the truck.

 

No paint rubbing but the center core is often so off center that the cover will not close all the way. Mine is just a little off, so the left shock rubs the inside bed rail I can't align it perfectly like I would want to. Some people have sent theres back but for $200 shipping i opted to keep mine.....Other than that, the paint quality and everything else is nice

See sig for pics

well i am planning to go to L.A. and have them install it. hopefully that will solve all the isues that you guys are talking about...chris

 

Thats the ticket!!! I took pictures of the mounts to help give people an idea of whats involved with the install. They are in my gallery if anyone needs them. Heres an example...

 

i really really really really really REALLY like my pro-sport!

 

the brackets on mine are different than those above.. maybe because mine is 2 years old?

the cover did rub my paint on the bed quite a bit.. i attribute that to my skill, or lack thereof, in installing bedcovers.. LOL

I'm looking for a good tonneau cover. Do these clamp onto the bed rails or do you have to screw into the bed? I'm thinking of the Astro Euro-Lid. I can get locally painted and installed for $725. I really like the look of the Innovations but that extra $500 will go a long way twards something else.
