1999-2006 Silverado/Sierra Crew Cab, Slip On Rocker Panel + Cab Corner
Quick Covers are plastic slip-on rocker and cab corner covers that return your truck to its original appearance for thousands less than traditional rust repair! Our installation process involves removing and treating the corroded area to help prevent and slow down rust. Quick Covers slide over the original factory rocker and cab corner. They are attached with automotive grade double sided 3M tape and pop rivets.
This kit fits on the Crew cab configuration which has four full doors. These fill fit the 2007 OBS.
Quick Covers are available in two surface types;(select from drop down above)
- Smooth- Smooth Quick Covers must be painted before installation to ensure UV protection. The smooth covers are ready to be cleaned, primed, and painted right out of the box. (*some surfaces are pre-sanded as a courtesy*)
- Textured- The black textured finish resembles a spray on bed-liner. The textured covers have UV protective coating and are ready to install right out of the box.

Our Marketing Team Hates Us
Quick Covers panels fit so well, you can’t even tell they’re on. It’s difficult to show this in marketing pictures—most customers can’t believe it’s the same truck. The painted panels look like metal, and fit almost seamlessly onto the truck. Even the textured covers look like they might be a factory option. 11 years of experimentation has led to this day.
The History
At Shaffer’s Auto Body (the place where the idea of Quick Covers was born), our special power was performing top notch auto body repair with amazing customer service. We were one of the only shops willing to accept rust work. Our name spread far and wide as people came to get their rusty trucks fixed. But we hated it.
We love automobiles. It’s our passion. But pulling somebody's prized truck apart to fix a small part of it hurt us. At that time, there was no better option. Those who could afford it, shelled out thousands of dollars and left behind their vehicles for many days in the shop. We had to turn a lot of customers away.
There had to be a better way. We tinkered with experiments, each one better than the last but still not good enough. First came slip-on steel covers, then we started hand-forming custom covers out of stainless steel (so they would last longer before rusting again).
That was a phenomenal development, but it still wasn’t an affordable option for most truck owners.
Why Not Steel?
We considered dozens of materials, and then narrowed it down and tested 5 for rigidity, impact resistance, and quality of final finish. The ABS plastic was the clear winner in all these tests. Now, instead of hand-forming stainless steel panels we could use a state-of-the-art manufacturing process which brought the cost of production down immensely. Now we could provide all car owners with this amazing advancement—easy to install, affordable, and custom-fit to each vehicle. Part of us wanted to keep this amazing product for ourselves. But a larger part of us wanted to share this phenomenal development with automobile lovers all across the United States. We separated the product from the body shop, started a new LLC, and quickly built up a solid customer base.
Made in the USA 🇺🇸
When we started out, we had zero experience in plastic thermoforming - which is the manufacturing process we use to make our covers. We can’t share too much without giving away trade secrets, but what we can tell you is that making a product that looks and fits perfectly turned out to be an order of magnitude more difficult than we thought it would be. The engineering process and manufacturing process is something we failed at multiple times. We tried outsourcing several different times with different people , and spent tens of thousands of dollars. It was all for naught. The results were basically the same poor quality products that were already on the market. If we wanted to make a superior product, we learned the hard way, we’d have to make it ourselves.
Today, we design, engineer, and manufacture all our products in-house, right here in the USA.

I bought it to avoid paying thousands for rocker repair on a 16 year old truck. They fit great, installation was a breeze, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Color matched with touch up paint ordered online.
I purchased the GM 99-06 Crew Cab Rocker Panel/ Cab Corner Smooth kit along with the inner brackets. The install was relatively easy (able to do alone in my driveway in about 3 hours). The quality and fitment of the product was great!
Some things I would do different if I did it again:
Send to a body shop for primer/paint/clear (I did mine in my garage and it turned out, but would have been better if a body shop did it)
Completely cut out and remove all rust and portions of inner rocker if using brackets (creates less interference when riveting)
Some things that made my life easier:
Buying brand new cobalt drill bits (made drilling process easy)
Color match painting rivets (being a black truck the silver rivets would have stuck out)
Peeling tabs off 3M tape before install (this process worked great)
Overall I would recommend this product as it does a great job of restoring the original appearance of your vehicle. It is going to be your closest representation of factory without paying thousands to have rockers/cab corners replaced. Shipping was fast and easy.
I almost panicked because my he box has a sticker that said “Smooth- Must be painted” and I ordered textured because I didn’t want to paint them. The order was correct, it was just a sticker. They were pretty simple to install. Removing the rot was the hardest part. The rockers and inner rocker covers fit perfectly. I would definitely recommend these.
These fit perfectly. Look great painted. I installed with windshield adhesive which gave me a little adjustment time. If you use the tape be careful once it sticks it’s on. I’m very pleased,made my truck look new again. Well worth the cost as apposed to other covers. You have to really look closely to know they are there.
Worked great im real happy with them changed the appearance of my truck
