Default Mini Mod to my Tonneau Cover

I purchased a 2014 GX460 last month and got a used tonneau cover with minimal scratches. I did a little mod to it before putting it in the truck. Just wanted to share with you guys. Enjoy

Looks pretty good! I wish the LX had a tonneau cover.

That's the first thing I took out of my vehicle when I got home. It's in the way and I took it out of my 2010 as soon as I got home. Poor design in my opinion. Your mod looks good, it covers up the scratches....

Agreed, mine has been in a closet since day 1.

Ya I agree its poor design and doesn't give a lot of cargo space. I got it to cover the items that I may place in the trunk, after shopping. I didn't want the vehicle broken into for items left in the open for eyes to see. There has been a lot of break ins in the bay area. Rather save the hassle of getting a window or few replaced.

Carbon Fiber vinyl, just got it off ebay years ago. I got it originally to vinyl my is250 but never did, so I had it laying around.

Very nice...I like it. I might do the same. So far I removed my tonneau cover since I needed the space to bring more people around.

I'm looking for a tonneau cover for 2014 GX. Does anybody have one they would like to sell?

Sewell Lexus has it for $468 for Club Lexus members. I'd sell mines but my girlfriend doesn't want to...
