need a source for parts I know are out there
Where are you guys finding the bed rail caps and tailgate covers for our trucks, and the ones made in diamond plate aluminum? Are there any in the same material but in BLACK or with the stake holes already pre-punched out on the rail caps? Also, front grill guards, the ones made mainly to hold lighting and to protect your front grill, meaning that they don't include the guards for the headlights. I see them every once in a while on a 1st gen, but mostly on Ram Chargers. I can't seem to locate squat. Please help. Thanks in advance.

California is where I'm from. Any thing around CA.? Thanks, evryone, for the tips so far. Sure wish I would've yanked off the bed rail caps off of the 1st 1st Gen I owned after I totaled it. Didn't realize back then (2002) that parts would be hard to source.

I scored two new-in-the-box tailgate protectors for a 1st gen at a flea market. They aren't the diamond plate, but just plain extruded aluminum. No way I was going to let them lay there for $1 each.
