Default Tonneau w/ big horn spoiler

Been lookin but cant seem to find a tonneau cover that will allow me to keep the stock tail gate cap spoiler that comes w/ the "big horn" package. I like that look and want to keep it on but i also need to cover my bed! any suggestions?

If you're just talking about the plastic tailgate spoiler that comes on all the trucks, I know the BakFlip tonneau lets you keep it.

Here's mine when it was new:













I've now had mine for over a year. It still works really well, I have to open/close it about 3 times a day for work, and it still keeps my bed bone dry...

Why do you want to keep it? I bought a leer hard cover and they gave me a cover to replace the factory one. You cant see it when it is closed, i think it loooks good.

Extang Black Maxx works great with the tailgate wing. Thats what I had until the Daytona wing was added.

I too have a leer...highly recommend it. I have my tailgate and tonneau wired through my power door locks...love it! They also color matched it...

Another nice feature is if you decide to use a bed rug liner...it matches the carpet they use on the underside of the tonneau...

Do you mean you have it wired to open and close your cover?

I got me cover right through Dodge it is the MOPAR soft tri fold cover, all I did was push the cover closer to the cab. No water leak problems at all.

Thanks for all the choices, now I gotta make a final decision. I happen to like the look of that stock tail gate spoiler thats why I wanna keep it on, i think it gives a a bit of a sportier accent plus anything that adds more black trim to nicely offset the huge red truck and still looks good is a keeper.
