that image insert was a no go man...you need the link location to use the IMG tags...for example right click on the image select properties and copy the image url...should end in .jpg

Personally, I think I'm gonna get one from Checkmate. It's on like 300 bucks, but honestly, I don't think any hard cover is worth even that much and I've seen them go past a grand, which is retarded!

is the checkmate cover flush like the sprint cover? and dont think the handle on the checkmate cover resesed flush into the tonnou cover like the sprint one is it?

i would like a flush mount...but i'd be concerned about water collecting and seeping into the bed itself. my friend had a nice snug-top that sat on the rails and dual recessed locks on the corners of the tonneau...that was kinda nice.

The checkmate one is flush and I'm not sure about the the handle? I don't think I've ever seen the handle on one?? I have a soft cover on my truck and if it rains, it's always dry under the cover.

The Checkmate isn't watertight. Shards of fiberglass will eventually begin to flake off of the unfinished surface. It'll look like glitter all over your bedsides. To properly smooth and finish the surface you will pay 2-3 times the cost of the cover. It will also begin to sag and water will puddle in the center. You get what you pay for unless you can construct your own.

I had a Jason top mount bedcover that was really nice, but I sold it and want a flush mount. I would probably save up for a sprint. Heard Checkmate's Cheap.

ya have one?
Yup. I got the dual lock kit and quick release hinge kit and altogether it cost me right at $420 shipped. I pretty much just have it to reduce wind drag and make it a little more difficult for punks to steal my tailgate or taillights. After I got it I realized I could've built my own for significantly less. It would be made mostly of aluminum and be completely smooth and paint-ready.
