Tailgate protector

Is there a lowere profile plastic guard that will replace the big ass bulky one that is on my 2004 chevy? Im looking for something that will cover the four holes and allow me to run a toneau cover. Thanks.

Stylin concepts has textured and painted ones that just sit over top of the tailgates top. I think they also have them on ebay.

Take it off and weld up the holes.

I like the SS one, but it might not work with a Tonneau ... get those handles on yet?

I'd shave the stake holes up

Yeah I agree, it's a cheap mod and shouldn't devalue the truck any. Ofcourse if it does all you have to do is buy another gate.

you could probably go to the dealership and order a tailgate cap from a 99-02 base model truck. the one that i had on my truck didnt stick out any, but i took it off and welded up the holes anyway.
