It’s Not Too Late (Yet)

When left unchecked, rust is like an infection that spreads throughout a truck. This can lead to structural issues and giant holes requiring repairs in the thousands of dollars (that sticker shock may even be what led you here).

But you’ve made the right decision to act now.

Below, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about:

  • The type of results you can expect to see.
  • Why this solution was so difficult to make.
  • Where our Quick Covers are made (and who makes them).

Professional Results

When we spend our hard earned money on an F-150, Super Duty, Silverado, Sierra, or Ram we want it to look good. But time can turn a clean truck into a rust bucket.

Unfortunately, a lot of aftermarket products stick out like a sore thumb. They’re bulky and can’t be painted to match your truck’s color. The "fix" is a bit less ugly than the rust, but no less apparent. It feels as if those parts were designed to say "Hey! There's rust under here!".

When we designed our Quick Covers, we wanted them to fit seamlessly into the original design of your truck. They also needed to be receptive to paint, to match it to your truck’s color. In other words we wanted to create a DIY part that could compete aesthetically with a professional body shop repair.

Hard to Make

That proved to be harder than we initially imagined. Making a 1 or 2 piece panel with complete coverage and a perfect fit required manufacturing processes that typically couldn't hold tight tolerances. Further, we had no idea what demand would be and we didn't have much money - so we couldn't invest in high-volume production.

We toured many other manufacturing shops, but ultimately realized that if they couldn't match our specs and if we weren't willing to compromise on the design, we'd have to make Quick Covers ourselves.

A mfg is Born...

So that's what we did. We started our own manufacturing company and called it OAM — Original Appearance Manufacturing. A play on "OEM" as a reminder to never deviate from our extremely high quality standards.

OAM recently acquired a 20,000 sq ft facilty in Ames Iowa where we will continue to grow our product offerings and manufacturing capabilities. Most of our team has been here since (nearly) the very beginning.

We haven't taken any money from investors. We are privately owned, and our core leadership team consists of 3 brothers; Zach, CEO and one of the original founders of OAM | Seth, Operations Manager | and Cody, CS and Warehouse Manager | A true family business. By bringing everything in house, we were able to create American jobs and control every single step of the manufacturing process to ensure the highest possible quality. We could have chosen to outsource the manufacturing of our parts overseas. That certainly would have been easier. And we know everyone else does it, but we felt it was our moral responsibility to support our homeland and deliver products unlike any others.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Quick Covers are installed with a combination of automotive-grade adhesive tape and fasteners.

Quick Covers are formed from virgin-stock ABS, a material often used by OEMs.

We develop and manufacture everything in Ames, Iowa USA. Thanks for supporting small town manufacturing!

Yes. Quick Covers can be installed easily, but we suggest a second pair of hands to help!

Ask your local body shops to reach out to us.

No. Quick Covers are delivered in raw plastic form at this time.

No. However, because Quick Covers are delivered in raw plastic form, they must be primed with a very specific product. Use of any other primer will result in adhesion issues resulting in paint cracks/peeling. For this reason, professional painting is strongly recommended.

No. Quick Covers are intended to be coated with a specialty raw plastic primer, which is intended to be applied directly onto the smooth plastic surface. It offers excellent adhesion and flex properties.

Smooth Quick Covers MUST be painted before installation. They have no UV protection, which means they can be damaged by sunlight. Painting them will provide ample UV protection. Textured Quick Covers DO NOT need to be painted. They have an additional UV coating to protect them from sunlight. We created this version specifically for people that don’t want to do any painting. They are lightly textured to match other automotive accessories like fender flares and bed rail caps.

We take the time to inspect each and every Quick Cover before it gets shipped out. Sometimes there are tooling marks created during the manufacturing process. Other times there are slight blemishes or small imperfections in the plastic. We sand these imperfections by hand to ensure a smooth surface for a quality painting job.

Quick Covers are delivered in raw plastic form, so a raw plastic-compatible primer must be used. We recommendPolyvance Bumper & Cladding Coat – Adhesion Primer. Part No. 3611-1

We recommend brushing a high-viscosity grease on any areas that can be reached by hand. For hard-to-reach areas (i.e. inside of rocker panels and cab corners) we recommend using the aerosol rust inhibitor Like90.

Quick Covers are designed for a perfect fit. If we made them any thicker they would rub on the doors of your truck when opening and closing. Our design is thin enough to eliminate those issues while still being thick enough to handle normal wear and tear. Quick Covers are made of ABS, which is a very tough plastic.

We suggest using a 1/8th bit for a pilot hole and then a 3/16th bit (rivet size) to finish off the hole. Starting with a pilot hole makes it easier to get through both the cover and the existing rocker and helps your bit last longer. Double sided drill bits can be purchased in our starter kits on our website.
