Paint though spent over a half hour matching chips came out more gray than white..OK not much you can do about that I guesse? only one run in the paint happens to be over the rear door left side! The fit? Could be much better... the front of cap is a tad bit wider than the rest of the cap so it looks like it bulges where it meets tha cab of the truck. The window where it meets the tail gate has a black plastic trim piece that does not even come close to following the profile of the tailgate. Glass? I need to mention that the left side turn out window fell out after 200 miles of highway driving. window glued in on leading edge with a trim piece covering the gap between the larger forward side window... Glue failed and window found swinging from the mech that opens window. The Cap looks great from a distance.. I am a bit fussy with my toys. I feel like fiberglass has been molded into cars, truck hoods, boats, etc for decades. This 6.6 foot square shell should be perfect or even better than that???? A.R.E was noted as one of the best and I think that may be true, Sad part is just that if it is the best then the rest should be so far behind that no one would consider looking at the rest?? Over all I would recomend A.R.E. Z series because Lear and Cenutry both made now in the same factory are not near the quality of A.R.E.. A.R.E. still stands out above the rest, but it should stand out by a huge margin.
