17 gauge aluminum ?
I think anything is better than plastic. If I didn’t have access to Jasper and his skills I probably would have done something like you did…. What was Tesla thinking?

Here’s the new stainless tailgate screws that will achieve a flush mount along with the sanding pads to get that trademark finish…

It just looks so much less sharp with all that trim in SS. The black trim really makes the angles pop. I’d be all for getting rid of plastic, but I’d need them in black and to have crossbar mount access. But glad plenty of others dig this design!

? … Variety is the spice of life. I don’t think Elon was thinking about popping angles. I think he wanted to save a buck… Be super careful when you go to Home Depot!

I like the look. Not sure I would like to fry on it here in Arizona though.
I bet in the middle of the summer if you crack an egg near the top of the windshield it will be sunny-side-up by the time it gets to the tailgate.

How’s that different from a Kia in Arizona? ?

It’s not. The Kia doesn’t look like a Waffle House utensil though. More like a plasticky ninja slow cooker.

Your man did a outstanding job. I have been watching your posts on this for a long time now and it looks like the final product with beveling turned out GREAT. Though I have 4 cross bars I only use the front two and side rails from MARS for all my lights so nice to see he is offering the different pieces so ppl can decide which works best for their setup.

Thanks, I’ll be swinging by the shop today to swap out my tailgate cover for the final version with flush mount hardware and proper Cybertruck sanded finish. Stand by for photos and probably a quick YouTube follow up video.

Here’s a few more pictures of the finished tailgate. Installed sail panels have not been finish sanded yet…

Do you have the details on the pads you used? I'm assuming you followed the service manual procedure? The finish came out great.
