2004-2008 F-150 Crew Cab, Slip On Rocker Panel + Cab Corner Cover
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.
Made of tough ABS plastic, Quick Covers are the only slip on rust panels that offer complete coverage. The low profile design makes the seam nearly invisible because it is tucked right into the factory body line. No welding required.
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.

I have a 2008 Ford F150 Lariat that I bought new in March of 2008. I have always thought this truck was one of the prettiest trucks on the road. I have serviced it myself except for the 100,000-mile spark plug change... don't get me started. Oil changes were done every 4,000 miles. My truck was a work truck but I took care of it and kept it looking good. About two years ago, I noticed while washing the truck there was the tell-tale rust color bleeding through the paint on the cab corners. How was this happening? I always kept my truck clean.
I did a little poking around and found that the rust was worse than I thought. While the rust was limited to just the cab corners, the metal was pretty well gone in spots and the paint was covering some badly rusted metal underneath. Like most guys, I checked with some local body shops to see about having the metal replaced. One shop didn't want to bother with a "small job." The shops that would do the work, wanted thousands of dollars. How much money did I want to invest in a 15-year-old truck with 160,000 miles? It is a great running truck with good life left in it, but did I want to drop that much money into it? I let the situation ride for a couple of months. I found myself not wanting to drive my truck as much and would drive the car instead. I no longer wanted to bother washing it. I just didn't feel good about my truck any longer.
I stumbled across OAM covers online and reviewed their products. I thought I would give it a try and see how it turned out. My truck has a two-tone paint scheme. I knew it would take a little more work taping off for the two colors, but even if I totally screwed it up, it would look better than a truck with rust holes in the cab corners.
I bought the starter kit. I cut out the rusted metal and treated the areas as per the directions. The videos posted on OAM were very helpful. I was not in a big hurry and was able to take my time. I bought the truck paint and clearcoat online from a place called "Scratches Happen." I was pleased with the quality of the spray paint they provided. You can see from my attached photos the before and after of my truck. There are some guys at work that I shared my results with and they were amazed. They had never heard of a plastic overlay to cover rusted cab corners. They thought I was joking about having done it myself in my own garage.
I was worried about the two-sided tape and rivets not sufficiently securing the plastic to my truck. I am not worried about that anymore. If you take the time and prepare surfaces as directed, the OAM plastic is locked into place and isn't going anywhere.
The end of the story is, I feel good about my truck again. I think it is still one of the best-looking trucks on the road. I enjoy watching other guys notice my truck... you know, it's a guy/truck thing.
I don't know anyone from OAM. I have not received any discount for giving this testimonial. I took the time to write this review because I know there are guys out there like me in the same situation. They have a good running truck that they wished looked better but don't want to sink thousands of dollars in it. I would tell you to give OAM a try. I am pleased with the way it looks and have a degree of satisfaction having done it myself.
Best of luck to you.
Hi Robert,
Thanks so much for sharing your experience in deciding to use Quick Covers and how it turned out for you! We're very glad you found it a rewarding experience, and we're happy the product and installation have brought you further satisfaction!
Thank you for supporting American manufacturing with your purchase of Quick Covers. We appreciate your honest review, and we hope it can help others who are looking into options for addressing their rusty rockers!
Relatively easy to put on. Good option if you just want something to cover up the rust you chop out.
The fit is great, and works perfectly for what I am looking for.
Great product. Fit is excellent. Drilling the holes in rust is the hardest part.
