    Considering getting a collapsible soft top cap, so which brands have the best value (must have a window, preferably tinted)? Is there a bed rack system that looks good and goes over the sides?

    The goal is to use it as a work truck carrying 24-26' walk boards while still able to use the bed as a camper (even though its short and I'm 6' 1"). So I'm also planning to build a custom drawer organization system similar to decked for half the cost. If anyone has a dyi thread on that I would appreciate it.

    Lastly, is there a way I can add a power outlet in the rear corner of the truck bed? Or should I just save the storage space and get some type of solar powered charging device for phones, powering a fridge, work tools, etc?

    I know its a lot but I figured I'd squeeze a few questions into one post, so just one more! Where can I find lots of options for a new grill/rear bumper...the chrome has got to go IMO.

    I think Bestop and softopper are the only brands who make the canvas camper shells, they're both pretty much the same so take your pick

    as for the power in the bed it's for sure possible but it might be easier to go with a different solution rather than wire it up

    I have a Softopper and there are not a lot of options for over the Softopper Bed Racks yet. I think @Nimble9 has made one for himself and might be making more not sure.

    Thanks for the recommendation, is your topper weatherproof?

    Weather Proof? It's sealed, the only area water might come in is at the front of the bed. The corners, but I seal them. Do you mean for sleeping in the truck bed?

    Yeah mostly concerned with rain, is it loud while driving, do they offer color matching, and does the sun fade the color after 2-5 years?

    Cleans with 303, seals with 303 guard. Comes in Tan, Black, and Gray. My Cooper ST Pro's make enough noise so I wouldn't be able to answer that.
