Found my shell!!

After 7 months of waiting, finally found this A.R.E. In Craigslist. Excellent shape, perfect color match, off of the same year.

 

Love the Shell.
I have the same truck 11' sport edition. Looking for a shell myself.
How easy/ hard was install/ take off and put on? I take my bike to the track a few times a year, and throw large objects in from time to time. may not be worth it for a full time shell, but damn it looks good and would be great for camping

 

. Lookin' good!

 

Great looking shell!

 

Thanks! Very easy to install. Took 2 of us, lighter than what I thought. Took maybe 10 minutes?? We sold our 4Runner so this is perfect timing. I'll be saving up to put a Yakima Rack for my kayak.

 

Patience pays off .

 

Looks great!
A shell is the best thing I ever bought for my truck

 

X2. Especially for a fairly rare color.

 

Looks Good

 

looks great! I recently installed a softopper shell and it increased my truck's usefulness x1000

 

am I the only one who thinks it may possibly look like the cap is sitting just a hair or three too forward on the bed???


OP your truck looks great!!!

 

Nope, you're right!!! fixed it when I got home!! Good eye man!!!!

 

Dude, sweet find! I just found a snug top supersport on CL that I'm having painted as we speak! Here's the before:

 

You guys have more patience than I did. I knew I'd probably be waiting and searching a long time to find a Pyrite Mica topper, so I just bit the bullet and bought a new one.

To the poster I quoted, post a pic when yours is painted. Both of your trucks look great with shells on them!

 

How much is the color match costing you?

I found a sweet Leer on a local site here for $700, but my body shop wants $500 to color match it so I haven't pulled the trigger.

 

It's going to cost me $410 for a color match. Most shops I called before I found this place wanted min $600 to do the job.

 

That's a steal!!

 

Picked up my Leer 100XQ for $500 on Craigslist a couple of years back. Had it repainted to match truck for $300. Total cost for a $2K plus shell that looked as good as new, $800.

 

Wish I would have put a cap on mine instead the top I have. I really miss the extra room. Still looking but not much luck finding a good used one.

 

What do we call your style of canopy that doesn't wrap down the sides of the bed 2". I prefer this to some of the newer sleeker type models.
