FAQ
Installation / Vehicle Specs
What's Included
Q: Will this fit my 2018 Colorado Z71?
A: Yes. It fits the 2015-2022 Chevy Colorado in Base, WT, LT, Z71, and ZR2, and the 2015-2022 GMC Canyon in SL, Base, SLE, SLT, AT4, and Denali.
Q: Does one part fit both the Colorado and the Canyon?
A: Yes. The Colorado and Canyon share the same tailgate for these model years, so a single protector covers both trucks.
Q: It mounts with my truck's existing hardware. What stops someone from unbolting it?
A: Tailgate theft is fast and opportunistic, and it is usually done with cutting tools rather than a socket set. The hardware this protector mounts with is not the hardware that attaches your tailgate to the truck, so someone working quickly is unlikely to have the right tool on them. No security product is absolute, but this pushes the time and effort well past what a grab-and-go theft allows.
Q: Is security hardware included?
A: No. This protector mounts using hardware that is already on your truck, so no additional mounting or security hardware ships with it.
Q: What is it made from?
A: Laser-cut 304 stainless steel, made in the USA by Cali Raised LED and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
Q: Is it painted or coated?
A: No, and that is deliberate. It is left as raw 304 stainless steel. Stainless resists rust on its own, so a coating would only add a finish that can chip, scratch, or peel over time.
Q: How does it stop tailgate theft?
A: Thieves drop the tailgate and lift it off the hinge, which takes seconds and requires no tools. This protector blocks that lift-off point so the method no longer works.
Q: How long does installation take?
A: About 5 to 10 minutes with basic hand tools. No drilling or permanent modification.
Q: Can I still use my tailgate normally?
A: Yes. The protector does not interfere with opening, closing, or latching your tailgate.
Q: Will it work with a soft close tailgate?
A: This has not been tested on soft close tailgates. If your truck is equipped with one, contact us before ordering.
