Will this Reading utility cap fit?

I have a friend that has a beautiful Reading SC-100-GS T utility cap for his 8' Silverado...I can get this for one of my 8' SD's for a screaming deal...I looked at the dimensions on this versus the one they make specifically for the SD's and they are "close" in measurements...Has Anyone ever did this? I dont want to loose this if it can work.

It took me months to find the right canopy for my truck for a good deal ($350). The front of the box is wider than the back, and it looks obvious if you try to cheat the dimensions (I tried). I just kept clicking Craigslist until the correct cap was close enough for a cruise with the coin.

I forgot to ask... Are you replacing the bed, or does the appearance matter?
