Greg,
get a set that has the screws in addition to the 3M tape. I've got the DeeZee's and they have 3 holes in them - front, middle & back. You just drill though them and put inthe screws, which are hidden on the inside, under the lip. So if you ever take them off, the screw holes would be hidden. I just happened to walk into a Tractor Supply Co. store one day and saw them. I think the sides were $69.99 and the tail gate cap was $29.99. So I took the cheap, cheezy black plastic ones I had off (what a PIA) and put these on. Just about ANYBODY who sells truck accessories should have these.

There was an automotive sale when I was there (Waycross, GA, store, and it was over a year ago, plus I was working up in Ga. at the time, and I don't care what anyone says, the prices are different at different locations. I won't buy hunting gear (12ga. shells, etc.) in Wal-Mart down here in FL. when I go hunting up at the farm in Ga. That stuff (and fishing equipment too) is ALWAYS cheaper in Wal Mart up there.
I saw the same set I got up there for $69 and $29 in the TSC in Melbourne Fl., for $99 & $39 a few months after I got mine up there. That may have been regulare price up there too, as I paid no attention to the reg. price when I picked them up. But I'll tell you, mine have been great, I hit them with the same aluminum polish I use on my rims & toolbox like once every 3 months and they still look like the day I installed them.
