On a scale of Awesome to Bad these are 'Ehh ok'.

I purchased these and they were damaged during shipment. ebay was great and sent me a 2nd pair.I like these but like others there is bad quality control going on. Mine are short about 1/2 an inch - which was expected as seen by pictures from other people. Also one of the sides did not have holes in them to allow the screws to be placed. Not a big deal but it is what it is. My biggest complaint is that the thickness on the side was different on each of the two rails. Not a massive issue but I…

Pros
  • The stake holes make it easy to secure extra loads
Cons
  • May not match the color of the truck

It's okay: my feedback

It is not the same dimensions as the OEM one, it does not sit as low so if you have any blemishes along the line of where the factory one was they will be much more prominent. Was a pain to install because I only had myself maybe with two people it would be easier. Problem I ran into was as I was trying to get it to sit centered and flush one of the double stick tape sides would stick and not let it sit properly. Not quite worth what they charge for it but it's okay

Pros
  • ‎49503
Cons
  • May not be as durable as advertised

2002 chevy silverado long bed bushwacker bedrail covers.

these bushwacker bed rail covers do not fit my 2002 chevy silverado long bed. nothing lines up and they arnt even formed the right way to make them sit flush on the top of the bed rail. very low quality product and its only held on by 2 strips of double sided 3m tape. do not waste your money on this product its very cheaply made to be costing $120. had to return these and went to a local shop to order and those bushwacker rails had twice the plastic thickness and were formed almost perfectly…

Pros
  • Featuring a diamond back design that enhances the aesthetic look of your truck
Cons
  • May cause unwanted noise while driving

Mostly Good in my review

Stake holes did not line up "perfectly" which is why it gets a star knocked off. Great product, suppose you could trim the holes to fit if you used them. I have a TonnoPro over mine so for me no problem, actually should probably have purchased the model without the stake holes. But, if you were looking for the holes to line up perfectly you will most likely need to trim these a bit. Good quality, thick plastic, easy to install if you follow directions. Great buy.

Pros
  • ‎Bushwacker
Cons
  • May not be compatible with aftermarket tonneau covers

Get it right or never

For 50 bucks, they should of done better. The right side looks like they screwed up when making it while the left side looks about right. I didn’t really do any dimensions when putting it on, I tried to use scotch tape to make my borders but the cap folds out when I squeeze it down the middle. And it seems that the width is slightly smaller than the original cap that I had, just leaves the old tape residue. I bought this item along with the rail side caps and they were easier to put on than the

Pros
  • Helps to improve the cleanliness and tidiness of your truck bed
Cons
  • May cause installation complications with other truck accessories

The poor placement comes from the manufacturer

I would have given the produce a 5 except the bed stake pocket holes were not close. Very disappointing for a product which is built so well. I installed them as tight to the front as possible with the back fitting very tight to the rear bed radius. There was no way to get the holes to align with the bed. Otherwise they fit well and installed well. If you need the stake pockets my suggestion would be to purchase the ones without pockets and cut your own stake holes? It's not the seller's fault.

Excellent product - my new review

The Bushwacker Diamondback bedrail cap is well designed. The material is extremely abrasion resistant. I've had it installed on my 1994 Chevy K1500 for about 8 months now and it looks as good as new. unfortunately, the post holes I requested in the purchase do not line up with the post holes in my truck. They're not even close. Because of this, I don't recommend buying this with post hole cut outs. If it wasn't for this problem, I would give this product 5 stars. My truck looks great with them.

Pros
  • Impressive workmanship that ensures longevity
Cons
  • May not be wide enough to fit certain cargo

Not impressed with Bushwacker quality standards

The design was nice. I liked the way the bedrail protectors drop down near the rear lights. But the quality was so poor that the width was way off so one side nearly touches the taillight and the other side isn't even close. It is very noticeable. I also read where many reviews said the bushwacker logo was placed upside down also. Poor quality standards. I used to think bushwacker was a good company back on the day but have my doubts now.

Pros
  • Improves the overall look and appeal of your truck
Cons
  • May not offer sufficient protection against the elements

Okay at best good for me

I bought these to cover my bed rails to help protect them. I have my back rack on top of it which helps hold it into place. However if you do install a back rack the plastic interferes with the nut for it. Okay product, the holes for the cargo mounts don't line up so you have to cut your own. Kind of sucks especially since The passenger side lined up perfectly but the driver side did not these are definitely not symmetrical. Yes they were installed nice and tight and they are level with each…

Pros
  • Ideal for people who make frequent truck trips
Cons
  • May not offer protection against harsh chemicals or spills

Fits a 06 2500HD for my opinion

Fitment chart says it does not fit a 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD LTwith the 8 foot bed but it does perfectly!My bed measures 100 inches from front to back lip from lip very happy looks to be good quality for plastic

Pros
  • Provides a smooth finish that's easy to clean and maintain
Cons
  • May not prevent paint chipping on the truck bed

Well worth the wait!

These bed rail caps cover more & look great for my ‘99 GMC Sierra. Very easy to install. Adhesion was great! Well worth waiting a couple months for delivery.

Pros
  • Tires & Wheels
Cons
  • May not fit snugly on all parts of the truck bed
