Side Bed Caps...


Recommended Posts

Posted

I like the looks of the oem gmc bedcaps, because the back half of them match the design on the oem tailgate cap. Not sure if the quality is on par with some of the aftermarket ones...

My truck came stadard with the bed rail caps. (All 2006 1500 series crew cabs did). They are attached with tabs going through drilled holes in the bed rails. GM accessory bed rail caps mount with double adhesive tape.

I put them on in the fall and they seem very durable and, yes, they match. Easy to install but you do have to be careful and take your time.

Suggestion...Start at the rear of the bed first and work your way towards the front,If you start at the front first the bed cap may be too short when you get to the back! :crackup:

I have seen several of the OEM ones on newer trucks, and IMO they look much better than the after market ones because they match so well, with that said however, I have EGR caps on my '96 that I got at the local truck acc. shop for $52.95, and I'm very happy with the quality, and they had lots of 3M tape on them which was a plus also

The gm ones are high quality, much better than the wade on my last truck.

I went through 2 sets of aftermarket bed rail caps, the both fit like garbage. The bushwacker was so bad it was rubbing the paint off my tailgate when I closed it.

 

The OEM fits amazing, they are 1000000000 times better the aftermarket.

When I bought the truck I had these horrific diamond plate looking bed rail caps.... I recently pulled them off and put the GM ones on... I highly recommend the GM caps.... they're great. :crackup: I forgot to take pics of the new ones.... but here's the old......

I have wades on this truck. They fit MUCH better than the bushwacker ones I had on my old one...although just talked to the previous owner and one finally cracked off after 6 years

I have OEM ones

Got them for half price at the dealership...they were supposed to be 110 bucks, they gave them to me for 60 cause I brought 10 people in to buy cars last year....I also get a huge discount on just about every accessory I want...just not crate motors or vehicles :crackup:
