That's pretty cool... what did you use for the netting and how's it attached?

Re: Rangers With Camper Shells/Topper Thread
I took an old tent and cut and stitched to the size/shape i needed. Then I stitched velcro around the edges and then i attached black velcro around the perimiter of the shell and bed. goes up in about 20 seconds and doesnt look tacky when its not up. I have put it up and left the tailgate and window open while driving just to test the integrity

Re: Rangers With Camper Shells/Topper Thread
If you pull all the glass and trim yourself they can usually shoot it cheaper (or at least better). 90% of a good paint job is prep, and masking always looks bad.

Re: Rangers With Camper Shells/Topper Thread
Got the racks back on today. Think it looks a ton better with the racks than without.
