Installed craftec inc tonneau cover today $249
It took three hours with the help of my wife to get it right...I ordered it from the website...came within a week...install was a pain but the finished product is good. I would recommend it for the person who wants a low budget top but not for the guy who wants a dry bed...My one complaint is that it doesnt reach the top of the tail gate...I tweaked it as much as I could and there is still a cm gap between the top of the tail gate and the cover...it seals ok on the bed rails but definately not water tight
 Thought I'd let ya'll know.

Re: Installed craftec inc tonneau cover today $249
You might try wrapping the frame with some foam tape. My last cover had that on the frame to keep from rubbing on the paint and possibly for a air tight seal.

Re: Installed craftec inc tonneau cover today $249

Re: Installed craftec inc tonneau cover today $249
BOTH trucks look great! Are there hard panels under the vinyl cover or is it just stretched real tight?
