    Hi
    Would any one be able to post a picture of the inside lower metal strip on the tailgate . Mine is Missing so I need to make one , it screws on the inside of the tailgate and holds the vinyl material down

    Thanks

    Double drat... sorry it took so long. This pic shows the shape in detail. let me know if you need any other shots. I'd love to try and find a vinyl replacement to redo mine.

    Thanks
    Is the strip made out of steel?
    You can get the material from SMS in Oregon ,it is actually Linoleum I think
    it is pricey though

    regards

    Yes made of steel, and the strip covers the vinyl just to end of the raised edge.
