Stainless tailgate cap and sail panels

[OldDirtyRobot]

Got mine yesterday. Fantastic packaging, and fitment is really good considering the slight variation on these trucks (See tailgate dividers for reference). Will post pictures soon.

If anyone is on the fence. The tailgate cover alone is A+. Solid, not a bit of movement. Looks OEM. The edge and bolts on the inside recess slightly so you aren't going to hang anything when you slide it out.


@Lowcoem, you were correct. I should have ordered the roof section. Did that today.

That’s fantastic! You will not be able to walk by the truck without admiring the upgraded look. It’s how it should have come from the factory.

First orders have shipped! When you get yours post pictures here!

Installed today! The packaging is a work of art. Totally overkill but very nice lol. The product fit and finish is almost perfect. Nothing to complain about and well within acceptable parameters. I assume the indentations for the screw wholes are more for strength than to achieve perfectly flat edge which I totally get! Took me less than 10 minutes to install and looks awesome! The stainless steel is very heavy duty. It's so much better than the stock Tesla crap! I will however install double sided foam tape(need to find appropriate thickness tape) at the opposite edge of the screw mount. Not needed to hold the cap but to soften/damper the impact for bumpy roads because now it has direct metal to the rear light bar hard plastic housing contact. Get the orders rolling you all. It's 100% worth it! Sorry about the dirty truck. Here are some close shots!

Awesome! Glad you love it… I’m not running any type of double sided tape/ cushioning layer as there should be no direct contact with the rear tailgate tail light structure but it surely won’t hurt! I’m so happy with mine and I’m happy the early adopters are impressed… Jasper is a perfectionist and he is stoked to see these positive reviews!

I’d say no more than 2 weeks… I’m bugging Jasper to build up some stock so he can ship as soon as the orders come in.

Wow. just Wow. i have stainless steel caps on my tailgate, but they are 3 pieces and painted CF. held on with 3m tape. already showing abuse. matching caps on rear bumper. i definitely will order the tailgate cap. on the sail caps, the existing roof rack options press down on the plastic sails. if the cutout is done cleanly couldn't you just hold them on with the roof rack mounts? they all have foam padding on the bottom.

One more question….does the existing tailgate cap just snap off at the top ? Saw your video and didn’t see.

Yes, it's hold together with clips. Very easy to remove.

Yes, I just want to be extra careful lol. I'm easily paranoid.

we have speculated that you could special order a set of Stainless Steel sail panels that had the factory square cut outs that allowed running Tesla Roof racks… You would definitely need the roof racks in place to hold said sail panels down… as of now there is no provision for running this type of sail panel without roof racks… Jasper is a problem solver however. I’m sure a special square washer could be made to hold such a sail panel down in the event you took off said roof racks, just e mail him if that’s your pleasure ….. alternately you could sell your racks, buy the JAM system and wait for the custom Stainless roof racks that are kicking around in Jaspers head and will attach seamlessly to the current design….
