    I've been searching almost all over the placed for this...topper reinforcement (?) thing. I can't seem to find it. I messaged the girl that had it but she hasn't said anything.

    I don't know what to call it. Do y'all think it's custom? If so, how much do you think it would cost to make? If its $1500 its worth it.

    Rhino rails with installation I'll spend about $1100. I'm good with working on cars and what not but I dont feel confident riveting things into the roof.

    Id say that it’s custom. Do a search for Kevin Costner’s tundra. It has a similar custom rack made by some place in TX. The place is in some of the articles.

    I riveted rails to my roof. So far no issues or leaks. I did go through 5 rivet guns though cause they kept breaking.

    Yeah I tried searching the forms but I think I wasn't searching the right wordology. I'll take a look into it and see what it costs.

    Yeah I'm just going to pay someone $300 and not have to go through 10 rivet guns.
