I will likely go with a soft roll up bed cover so it's easier to remove. Although the hard bed covers look nice.

Re: My checker bed cover arrived today

Here are some pics. I still have to add the weatherstrip. But I will do that after I paint it. I might do some triming on the back on one side it sticks out a little. But I am happy with.

Re: My checker bed cover arrived today

I was really impressed with how quickly they can custom make these.

Make sure you reinforce the joints like the directions say.
