    Hey guys,

    I live on the central of CA, and am looking for a snugtop camper shell for the trip back to my home state. I have 2011 magnetic gray DCSB. Got quoted $1500 for a matching rebel in Long Beach, but that is ridiculous. Looking to buy used, and either repaint it or sell it once I get to Florida.

    Any leads are greatly appreciated!

    Thanks
    Cameron

    I am about to post a soft topper that I bought specific for a relocation move with uhaul in tow. It was perfect! Upgraded to LEER DCC full doors last month. Used it a lot over two years (so heavy use) still all functional. Paid 700+ was going to post for 250.00 they normally are in the 400+ plus used. If interested let me know

    Thanks. Is it soft topper shell or just bed cover style. I hear new and used quality shells are hard to find on the east coast, so maybe I should just spend the coin and get a new one here in Cali....$$$

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Now would be a good time to get off the couch. Maybe he'll take 500.

    Another question. What do you guys think of the snugtop's with the open front door (it joins to the back of the cab)? Any issues or prone to leakage?

    A rubber gasket can be installed around the front opening of the cap and against the back of the cab (on one of my old trucks I removed the rear cab window completely for a pass thru to the bed and may do the same to this truck)
