Very nice looking, Prices, and where did you score it. As for your question , that plastic was put on with a heat gun. Not only will it not adhere well. but if never peeled off ;It would yellow and tear at the edges. One New England winter, would probably do all that ,imo. Have fun with all that bubble wrap,lucky girl lol.

Rocket that's not what I'm talking about. Its almost like the bed liner but the part on the gate. I took it off and not sure if I want to put it back on. U can see where it was rubbing on the paint

It just protects the paint and the bed incase you have anything back there that might slam into it so you should be fine with it off. I have one on mine but it came that way with the HEMI bedliner from the dealership when I bought it and with the cover on it its lasted nicely. Looks good though, I second the orange peal look on the last pick but hey you cant really tell unless you're up close on the silver.

Thanks for the heads up, Dg. I would leave it on, seeing as your not gonna see it and it is serving a purpose. My pc screen is covered with sweet lemonade spray, from reading all the funny **** on this forum, Couldn't make out the orange peel problem, sorry.
