Front bed rail cap cover

Does anyone have a source for something like this? Looking for the one that goes on the front only I don’t need the sides since mine are in good shape. I did see a diamond plate one on eBay but I was hoping for smooth steel or plastic like the sides.

The quality of the photos goes to crap when you blow it up but that looks like bed liner as does the bed sides and tailgate to me.

I did mine with bedliner but if you want a smooth finish, you can try painting it with POR15.

Yea sorry the photo isn’t the greatest. It’s basically a cap that goes over the top of the bed rail at the cab.

i was thinking bed liner but mine is a little dented so it would need to be bondoed

Ah. I it's cover and concealment you're after, how about a piece of angle iron and paint that with POR15?

Yes, I know what a cap is and what you wanted but my point was I have never seen one for the front of the bed commercially produced, only custom one off ones made by individuals. Find someone with a brake and get one bent up and coat in you choice of material.
