Removing Plastic Bed Caps???
 
Looks like they just snap into place, but I pryed with my fingers but it wouldn;t pop. Scared to stick a pry bar under it but may have too....

I just noticed that there is a chip in the paint right at the edge in the rear passenger side next to the tailgate and it appears to go underneath the cap.... I will still have to remove the cap to sand and blend it regardless. I wouldn't worry about it except it's a deep chip that apparently went through the primer to metal because it's got some surface rust. Cancer is a major battle with this truck anyway, it's ate up with it, I'm trying to nip all I can in the bud.

your right they just snap into place but if your not careful you will rip the plastic tabs off. atleast thats what happened to mine then i had bolt it on

Thanks, thats what I thought. Is there anyway to help prevent ripping the tabs off?

not unless you can get at it from underneath a squeeze them together, they are kinda arrow shaped tabs. i hate plastic, i wish it was all metal
