Default pics of my A.R.E cover

I got my truck bed cover on a few weeks ago, and just finally got some pics. Its an A.R.E. LS2 series. It also has the sport wing with light. I'm very pleased with it, looks great. The one thing i liked about the A.R.E covers is that they match the bed cover to your specific hood. You can kinda see it in the pictures, it has the two slashes in it just like the hood does. If anyone has any questions feel free to post them or if you just wanna comment do that too.

P.S. - i don't always get to check the forum everyday, so if you post a question i will get back to you on it.

I like the cover itself but I never understood putting a wing on a truck.

the wing is mostly for looks, i plan on eventually lowering it and it just gives it a really sleek look.
as far as options go the LS2 has pretty much everything you'd need, the only extras i got was the light on the inside and the wing with the light. i tried keeping the photos better resolution when i was posting this but i had a hard time with compressing them.

--If you click on them individually they look a lot better.

after installation and everything it was around 1300.

w/o the wing with light, and the light inside it would be about 1000

I think it looks nice. You see some Rams and some Titans with the spoiler, but this is the 1st Dak...Looks good.

sounds like it was decently priced. my bedrug and tonneau togetherwas a little over 1600 and i got all options minus the wing. free install (which means they add install price in the mark-up)

thanks bk, i can't wait to get those 4x4 decals off and put some real decals on. the decals i plan on would be like yours but instead the mopar symbol and mopar it would have wats my little avatar picture to the left.

--virused,
i don't really stress performance mods on my truck because i just don't have the time to really get into it. for now i plan on doing acouple more small things for performance like a programmer and a 180 thermastat, and just keep the truck looking good. Hopefully i'll take care of those two mods and the decals this year and that will prolly be about it until next year. i hope to eventually make it into a street truck, but we'll see if i have the time and money for that, haha.

If I had a painted cover, I would unbolt the wing, run the decal all the way across the cover as well as the sides, then bolt that spoiler back on. Cuz my cover is soft, I didn't do the stripe across the top.
