I just recently painted my truck and I cannot find a soft bed cover anywhere! Does anyone have or know where I can find a soft black bed cover for sale?

The only soft covers anyone makes for our trucks are the velcro attatching ones, there are no solid frame, lift up ones (I looked extensively myself) I never got the chance to get the bed rail dimensions of any other kind of truck to see if it could work, but that would be the only option

there are a few choices out there that i have seen but cost is involved. obviously you can make one out of channel and some vinyl but ones ive seen and owned one personally, check out ebay. the company is called Berlin, they make each cover custom and its only 250.00 or so including shipping. The best part, they TILT. about 12" of the front attach to the bed with camper top clamps and has gas struts. cover is snapped on, so you can just remove the soft cover and leave the frame. this guy is good too, hes sold a few to Mazdascene and Izuzuscene members. fast shipping and if there is any damage during shipping, i had the replacement part in 2 business days. check it out, i was very happy and recommended the covers to the Mazda and Izuzu guys all the time since they dont have any choices at all either....

hes looking for a soft cover. If he wanted a hard cover, you can go to some truck (Big rig) centers and get Fiberglass covered plywood that big rigs have for sides of trailers. its about 1/2" thich or so, and waterproof. just have to seal the cut sides somehow, maybe with bondo or something to keep water out. its paintable and weatherproof.
