If I were you I'd wait for the ARE to put that type of spoiler on, I don't know how well a folding one will support it. Would really suck to have that go flying off on the highway.

It's actually a heavy hard plastic lol. I got it from the Dodge dealer, right after I got my truck I purchased it through them and had it put on. So, it's a very good heavy material. Probably the same, if not more, as A.R.E. I would love to wait for the A.R.E but that would take a while seeing as how I don't have a job. Finding a job where I live is very hard. I'm only 19 too lol. I'll defifnitely consider what you said though, but I've got a strong hard tonneau cover. I wish I could find it, or I should take a picture of it, but it's from the Dodge company. It's got 4 different spots that I can fold over, and has two keyholes with the rubbery Dodge cap that hides the keyhole lol. If I find a picture I'll show you.

You can kind of see it here....
I'll have to get a better one tomorrow.
Kind of looks like the BakFlip.
I cannot find it online.
I wish there was a site with every single Dodge Dakota part that I want. I don't have much luck finding sites. What are some sites you guys buy your stuff off of?
It'd be even better if they had a Dodge store.

Thanks, I've been to all those sites except PerformanceProducts which I may have been to w/o realizing it! I go to Ebay a lot because they always have good deals.

If you want a daytona style wing, pick one up, measure the distance between rails on the truck, then measure the wings width, chop out a section in the middle, and make it the right width for the rails, then what I would do is wrap it with fiberglass cloth first, then add chop mat to feather it into the rest of the wing... then, of course, paint it...

Yeah, that's what I plan on doing. Because there is no way they're going to have a Daytona wing out there perfectly fit for my truck, unfortunately.
