Default Tonneau covers

Who here has a tonneau cover for their 4th gen F-Body?

I'd really like to see peoples cars with tonneau covers because i'm thinking about buyng a vert and I'd just like to see them on a variety of different F-Bodies.

So.. With that being said.. Post pics of your F-Body convertables with tonneau covers.

For what it's worth I have the tonneau cover and I have only used it twice. On the trip back for LA when I bought the car....and one other time in town....found it takes up to much space in the trunk, pain to put back into the bag.

Does look nice on the car, but....here you go photos from the guy I bought the car from.

I sold mine. It looks awesome, but it wasn't practical enough for me to really use it much. I wish I would have spent the money on a 4-point.

Here are some pictures of mine. I think it looks awesome and I get a lot of compliments on it. It is true it is not too practical but I don't regret getting it at all.

Those tonneau covers can be bought thru RK Sport, about $500 but the shipping is a few hundred depending on where you live......then you have to pay to paint it. (almost $1k!)
