Hey, this is a great mod!

I need it to cover up some cosmetic dings on the end of the tailgate, and I could use a better handle to close the tailgate with one hand, since I have a vise mounted on it... just checked $ and availability at the dealer - off to go pick it up.

Back soon!

Just got the package back to the office and opened it up - looks pretty good and an easy install to boot.

I have been eyeballing mine for a possible camera mount. Looks like the underside of lip is pretty close to the ideal mounting angle to "see" my trailer hitch. I sure am tired of the 6 or so times I have to get out of truck to hook up my trailer.

I just back up 'til I hear the sounds of glass breaking and metal crunching...

Does anyone have the Dodge part number for this??
I called a dealer who said he could get one for $49. Not sure if it's the same one.
I'm out of town so I can't go in and look at it.
Figure if I can get a number, there shouldn't be any mistakes.

Did yours come with the bolt kit and the well nut tool?

I thought you didn't like spoilers, that's what I read when I did a search on tailgate spoilers.

Glad to see you got one, they are really cool!

Yeah - mine looks just like that!

I have the OEM tailgate protector installed over the Rhino lining, so I had to make a 4' long SS bracket with nuts welded on in the correct position so I could screw the spoiler on with the tailgate assembled.
