TheGeorgiaKid Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 (edited) I'm wanting to put a Gaylord's Speedsturr Wing Tonneau Cover on my SS. I know I will have to take the stock tailgate cap off. My question is will the tailgate have the holes along the top for the bolt-on stock caps like the other trucks do? Can anyone post a pic or two of one they have done on their SS? Thanks.

I was told the tailgate cap had to be taken off for the Speedsturr wing opition, but not if you don't get the wing. I think it should look like this without the cap.

SoCalSS Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 I have mine without the normal Silvy SS cap, I have a painted to match cap that looks nice and looks closer to the pick of the red cover above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGunny Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 For the speedstur wing you don't have to remove the cap the cover goes right over it... best i got right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zanis520 Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 if you're worried about it, you should just shave the tail gate. it will look 1000x better and no worries about holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is exactly like what I want, it looks great! I want to keep the stock SS tailgate cover. I have the one that stands out not the smooth cap, which one do you have? Is it the X2000 series? Did you get a carpeted headliner? Thanks. Edited September 29, 2007 by TheGeorgiaKid (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 I agree with the others. The cap doesn't need to be removed HOWEVER, if you want a super flush fit on the tailgate, you need to remove the cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haul@ss Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 the front ends on my speedstur lid sit flush with the front of the bed, AND the back end lip slightly touches the ss tailgate cap. It took me some tweeking on the x2000 clamps and but i got it just how i like it. The speedstur bottom lip acutally flares out a little so its pretty much impossible to sit flush to the tailgate imho. i could be wrong though.
