    Sorry to hear that. Do you have any sense as to why these needed to be replaced? Luck of the draw? Hit a few potholes? Heavy off roading? I would be curious what you think may have been the cause.

    Of course, I wish it didn't happen at all ...

    Yeah I've got avid front, sides, and rear!

    Not the best for heavy off roading, but still good for light trails! The geometry of the rear guard actually helped save my rear bumper on a steep incline.

    Tbh, I think my skid has seen more action than the front guard!

    Yes. I wanted full bed access instead of 2/3rd access so I narrowed my choices to Undercover and Bakflip. One thing to consider if you have a preference is that when the last section of the Undercover is opened is stands vertically compared to the Bakflip that leans against the back of the cab.

    I have a friend that has had an Undercover on his F-150 for 9 years with no issues so I was leaning that way then I found a 20% discount during Amazon Prime day so that was the final decision for me. The installation was quick and easy too. I just need to pick up a couple more fittings today to run the drain lines out of the existing bed drain holes and I will be done.

    Love how this Baja Designs 20" light bar has amber running lights, the sliders are Apex. Both installed yesterday.

    Was wondering if any one has done something for this. I know it is anal, but that is how I roll....

    Looking for any thoughts or things others have done to prevent rock chips from rusting so it doesn't look like total crap until it is bad enough to remove and have them re-powder coated?

    Aren't those aluminum? I don't think they'll rust.

    And a gentle dab of some flat black rustoleum on a sponge or foam blush should hide any chips or scratches.

    Doh! :facepalm:never even thought to check actually. regardless want to touch them up, had considered rustoleum or possibly even some flex seal on the faces. Maybe it would help prevent additional chips. Was curious if others had tried something with success.

    Appreciate the replies!
