Hoods & Tonneaus
I asked this earlier at the end of a thread and didn't get much of a response,so here goes again.
For all of you who have changed hoods and tonneaus(that's a lot of L owners!)could you do me a huge favor and list the make,model and a ball park cost for both.I will be changing both come spring and would like to have an idea as to whom I should go w/ and what the cost will be.
Thankx,

I paid $739 plus tax for my A.R.E. LSII hard lid. That includes painting-to-match, $65 for underside carpeting to match my BedRug, and installation. Not a bad deal for a first class quality unit that is guaranteed for life. I really like it and it gets lots of compliments.
A.R.E. also offers an optional wing (spoiler) mounted on the rear of the lid for $229 but I don't care for it. Looks too "tacked-on". I prefer the smooth, sleek look of the tonneau by itself.

Paid $725.00 plus tax for my A.R.E LS11. Included the paint but not the carpet on the underside. Also got a Bedrug which is another quality item.

does A.R.E have a website? I talked to a guy with a sung-top-like lid beleive it or not at the city Dump. Yes Anchorage is actually called a city, and yes I drove my Chevy. He said his lid cost $1600! I replied, "man I'd rather throw my money in the trash." All I got was an ungly look, and "Are you here to drop off that Chevy?" (He was in a ford)
