i was pricing fiberglass bed and $1600 was a little much but if you got it. i would patch it with sheet metal bondo over and slap on a paint job

Maybe it time to make it into a flatbed? Here is a picture of my buddy's flatbed that was completed 2 weeks ago.

Too bad that stuff is made in Canada. Shipping and customs makes it completely unreasonable. I think I got quoted at 500 bucks for shipping and customs alone.

That is sheet metal replacement panels but it is also in Canada. Anything in the US?

Ha funny my neighbor does actually own his own trucking company. BC is quite a drive from the middle of America. I'm not trying to dog on your product (sorry if I came off harsh), I'm just not made of money. I would kill for a fiberglass bed.


I'm sure this has been answered many a time but, do 2wd beds fit on 4x4s?

The fiberglass bed seems like a good idea till you tip it against that pesky tree. I will take dents over that mess any day.

Why not just fiberglass pieces to go over rusted areas on a given bed? who needs a whole bed? Well some might, but not I. ( 1988 some rust in bed seams and outer fender weld spoots.

Heres another option http://www.bgfiberglassusa.com/home.html. This is closer and they have a few different price ranges.

I would like to get new bed as well. Everybody says just make a flat bed. Thinking I like the look of the bed now!
