Has anybody added a shell to their Pro?

    I had a Leer 100 xq on my 2007 SR5 and really liked having it. I love the look of my '17 Pro without a shell, but kind of miss the practicality of the shell. I like to keep the dust and moisture to a minimum while camping, and no I am not considering a tonneau. Has anyone added a shell to their Pro and can post pics? Would really be sweet to see a color-matched cement shell. Just trying to get a feel for what it will look like on a short bed, and a Pro. My '07 was a DC 6.5' bed.

    Here’s a few pics of my pro with a snug top. Not cement and not a crew max, but it’s possible for you to get an idea of how it looks

    Thanks for the responses guys. I'm having a hard time deciding if I like the look of a shell on a short bed truck. I guess when it comes to practicality, it really shouldn't matter. I do like the lines of the Leer 100 XQ and the fact it has a single side pane, it looks less like a shell and more like an SUV.

    I wish the top of the crew max rear windows didn't slope down so much. Totally throws off the lines and makes the caps look a little strange imo.

    I think it’s just that the Crew Max looks a little strange, no matter what!

    This is actually why I don't like the frameless sides.. it looks like an suv.. I want the windoors.. feel like it breaks up the suv look and they are super useful.. I can't decide on what make though.. leer or century most likely bc of the removable front window.. No snugtop dealers nearby

    The XQ is what I’m using and have zero complaints. I only use it Nov-April And couldn’t survive winter without it. The summer months I feel like it is in the way.

    Does anyone think a black softtopper would look good on my Cement Pro? I bought one when there was a possibility we had to evacuate for the hurricane this year. Never had to install it and it is just sitting in my garage.

    The color coordinating for soft toppers differs from hard shell caps cause they are clearly not a part of the rig. Black would look good no matter what. It could look even better with some additional black accents like fender flares. But it’s gonna depend on how much time that softtopper is on your rig.
    Make sense?

    I think it would look killer with some black "TRD Pro" inserts in the bed stamp

    I believe it was around $3k by he time I added all the options. It has interior carpet, 2 ea Led light strips,etc

    As an aside, it came off my 2014 MGM Crewmax, I was going to buy another but the dealer that I purchased the topper from told me that A.R.E offers a repaint for $600 including shipping to and from the dealer. It came back with a really close color match.

    If it wasn't so effin hard to get a topper on and off I'd definitely buy one. I may look into those hoists/lifts you can install in your garage, or I may just end up going with a SofTopper on my cement. That Z series on @Ol'Greg Pro looks pretty sharp, though...
