Great to Cover and Prevent Tailgate Dings!

9 months ago
I strongly recommend... I'm restoring a 96 F150 Eddie Bauer pickup. I acquired a tailgate that was in good condition except for age related dents on the top of it. This protector covered them up nicely saving me a couple hundred in body work! It's very sturdy and the chrome finish is good quality and will last a long time! There are many sizes for different model and year trucks and Tractor Supply was very fair on the price and I had it delivered to our local Tractor Supply within 2 days of ordering.
