srtSSsvt121 Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 I am going off to college and I need to get a bed cover. So I wanted to get my favorite the gaylord speedsturr lid. Now i know they are expensive, but i would take this out of my bank account. Anyways i have a few questions before i make this rational decision such as, how much of a bargain could i get i dont want to spend anything over $1500 thats almost all my money. does it come painted, and how much is installsation, and has anyone's come damaged in the mail, if so what did you do about it? Your help is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSplaytoy Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Mine came painted, really bad job though. 1200 bucks from stylin concepts. If I were you, I would go for it and have it painted IMO. Look for people who are selling one at a better price if you can. I wouldn't pay for install either. It is really easy, but you will need a friend to help you lift it to put in on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

got2bquick Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Have one on my truck. Waited 6 months for it to go in production. Was worth the wait. Mine came painted. Looked great! Cant be happier and have had many compliments on it. Was in the same price range also. Got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srtSSsvt121 Posted January 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 Did you have to put pads on the bed edges, and where do i go for the blue paint, like what site, or what part of gaylord site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSplaytoy Posted January 31, 2005 Report Share Posted January 31, 2005 My tonneau started spotting, and I wax it. That is why I suggest checking local body shops on a paint price. When you order it, it is 110 extra to have it painted I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sick Boy Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 I have the x2000 gaylord speedsturr lid. The fit is perfect. The paint is decent, the paint color is an exact match. Mine came with swirl marks but nothing a good waxer can take care of. Here you can see the paint isn't a perfect mirror finish but like I said get a god waxer that knows what he is doing and youll be set. These pictures were taken before the wax.
