Fiberglass/carbon fenders with tonneau cover or cap


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm curious to know if anyone is running fiberglass or carbon fiber fenders and also happens to be running a tonneau cover or cap. I'm looking at making some changes to my truck and in the good ole "live free or die" state we have some strict rules on wheels sticking past the body. I'm currently running line-xed flares but I just can't stand the look. I'm thinking about doing some fiberglass or carbon fiber fenders and dropping down to a 4" lift. Should be easily able to clear 37s.

 

With all that said, I have to maintain the ability to keep my bed covered. I'd love to keep the diamondback or run a cap, but I want to make sure the bed has the strength for it, especially if I load stuff on-top of the diamondback. No idea if I'll follow through with this, as the cost is huge for these changes, but I'm interested in knowing if it's even possible.

I contacted the guys at fiberwerx, they just got back to me saying that it's possible but I may need some extra supports. I'm not sure the general install process for these so I might have to try and find someone that has done this before. My primary concern was figuring out if the weight on top of the fiberglass/carbon fiber would crack it.
