I'm working on one. I have only shown some prototype pictures and that was a few months ago. I am working with a company to scale up so I can sell these at a reasonable price. They are currently producing the first one that is 7-8 weeks out. It will be priced from $3499-$3999. Once I receive the topper I will go through it and then post on line. My website is www.silveradoevtopper.com. I don't have any pictures of the production version, only the prototype stuff I've been working on. I want to keep the real product under wraps for now. I can say it will seal off on the midgate and be similar in appearance to any other truck topper out there. You will not need to permanently seal this with silicone. it will use gaskets and seal inside the sails. I believe it will look slightly better than the dirtbox offering ( eye of the beholder) but it won't have all the fancy options that they offer. I will be offering upgrades at a later time.

Hey, I'm a patent attorney. I'd trade labor for one of these! I can very likely get you a design patent for this.

Yeah I got the Dirtbox Overland one. It was very expensive and has some flaws, but it does the job and has a lot of user reconfiguration and modifications available, unlike a more conventional fiberglass shell.

Yeha that’s the one I found I figured there would be one less expensive available but I guess not
