bed rail caps

I'm looking for some bed rail caps for my 2003 super cab Ranger. It came with a factory-installed bed liner.

I've heard some of the aftermarket caps have problems with poor fit and warpage.

Any recommendations, or ones to avoid?

Thanks.

I have UWS aluminum caps. I love them! Aluminum will not warp. It might bend if you get something hung on them, but that would be unlikely. Just my two cents but since you asked, avoid plastic. It might be cheaper but you pay for it in the long run.

Ditto on the UWS aluminum caps
UWS makes some of the best accessories for trucks..Tool Boxs being the big seller..UWS is high on alot of their stuff but it is quality..
UWS also has a guide to their products White UWS logo is the cheapest you can get..Blue Logo is the Medium grade and is what most people buy and Red UWS is the most expensive...I don't think they do Aluminum caps like that,but they do ,do tool boxs like that..

Also another great brand name Accessories for trucks is Better Built, They make top of the line products and are good on the wallet......

I love UWS!!! As for the cost, you can order directly from Aggri-Supply. They will drop ship right to your door anywhere in the US. I got my rail caps for $31 after tax. Cpmpare that to $70 for Dee Zee. I also ordered my tailgate cap for a whopping $19. I will get my class III hitch next week for an entire $89. The hitch is made by Curt Mfg. They can also order any Westin or Putco accesorry you want. Try to find prices that beat that!
