Frequently Asked Questions

Q. How does the quality of your products compare to cheaper brands?

Our policy is to carry name brand products that have a reputation for quality. These products are designed to last...in most cases, for the life of the vehicle.

We do not carry the lower quality discount brands due to customer satisfaction issues. If you are looking for these types of items, visit one of the nationally known auto discount stores.

We believe firmly in the old saying, "You get what you pay for!", and we hope you do as well.

Q. How do your products compare to dealer brands?

Most car dealerships purchase aftermarket accessories for new vehicles from the same manufacturers that make our products. The two differences are:

1. The product may be stamped with the vehicle's make, but its still the identical product.
2. The product generally retails for a significantly higher price, sometimes as much as 50% higher.

A dealer may try to explain away the higher price as labor. Don't be fooled. Most of these products can be installed in 30 minutes with nothing more than a screwdriver. Remember that dealers push these items...just like they do the extended warranties...due to their extremely high profit margins. You'll save yourself from buyers remorse buy saying no at the dealership and ordering your aftermarket accessories from one of our authorized Armor Deck dealers.

Q. What's the difference between Urethane and Fiberglass?

Urethane and fiberglass are two different materials used to make body kits. Urethane body kits have perfect or near-perfect fitment and are more durable than fiberglass parts. Because they are made of a rubbery material they can flex and bend without cracking or breaking. They are also more chip-resistant than fiberglass parts. Fiberglass parts are generally lighter and easier to modify if any custom work is planned. Fiberglass is also easier to repair and less difficult to paint.

Q. What are the benefits of "drop-in" bedliners versus "spray-on" bedliners?

Drop-in bedliners resist scratching, gouging and fading. Soft spray-on materials can be scratched and gouged and their color may fade. Spray-on bedliners do not help protect the bed of your truck against dents from heavy cargo. Spray-on bedliners are permanent and therefore not easily repaired or replaced once damaged. Our drop-in bedliners are guaranteed not to split, crack or warp for as long as you own your truck.

Q. What is the difference between a part and an accessory?

Accessories may be generally defined as devices designed to adapt, modify, install, amplify, connect, clean, and maintain the original product. They are product enhancements. Parts, on the other hand, generally refer to functional items that are part of the basic design of a product.

Q. What is the difference between an original part and an aftermarket part?

Original parts are produced by the manufacturer to the exact specifications of the part that originally came with the product. Aftermarket parts are produced by third party manufacturers to emulate most of the functions of the original. Aftermarket parts cannot be guaranteed to match the original part in performance, color, and quality.
