Re: Fiberglass Tonneau Covers
A few members have one from Gaylord's... I think they look great but I can't bring myself to fork over the $$$

Re: Fiberglass Tonneau Covers
Seems Gaylord is the only one right now and they look great. I can't bring myself the fork over the dollars either. When I priced it out last fall with shipping and to get it painted, it was right around 2K.

Re: Fiberglass Tonneau Covers
I have a Gaylords on my CST. Ordered it from a Gaylords distributor in Denver. Pricey but it is nice.

Re: Fiberglass Tonneau Covers
I had a Gaylord's cover on my blue truck, perfect fit and painted to match. I believe it was $1500 but this was 6 years ago.

Re: Fiberglass Tonneau Covers
I stopped by the Gaylord factory today. Nice set up. They make them as ordered with a 3 week turn. I would say they can make a longhorn. They will paint to match with the code or they can scan off a part like the glove box door or ashtray, for about $250. If they have to custom match its a little more. $100 to install and get all aligned and straight. $1000 for a primed picked up part. Not sure what shipping is or how that price compares to their retailers. So for those in SoCal, $1,350 painted and installed.
They do ship world wide.
