Dee Zee front bed cap

So, I bought a 1996 Ford F250 and bought the Dee Zee bed rail covers. However, the discontinued the front bed cap. Just wondering if anyone has one I could buy or if they know of anyone who sells them. I tried ebay and various sites with no luck.

Thanks
Matthew

Thanks for the reply. I ordered the side rails from them in October. Still haven't gotten them. I do see the stainless steel protector I didn't notice before. That might just work even though its not the diamond plate.

Looks like these folks sell the DEEZEE Diamond cab/bed protector you are looking for.

How about a truck bed coating? Herculiner works well for me over the years, I can snap a pic of how it looks on the dually.

Protects that area fine and the rest of my caps are Westin I think.

I was hoping to avoid the coating. The truck only has 28k miles on it and the bed looks great. Just wanted added protection with those rail guards. Crazy they sell the bed side and the tail gate protector but not the front part.

I got this one several trucks ago. It might even be for the tailgate as it is u shaped with the bed side longer than the cab side.

Yes, that's it. I will try my tailgate guard as well. But I think it comes to a point and won't work. I'm hoping to find one here or on ebay.

I agree on having a shop do it. Not only is it supporting a local business but it'll be alot cheaper. They'll just want some measurements and they can probably whip that out quick. 1/8" aluminum diamond plate isn't super expensive.
