It might drop 5 degrees or 10 if I'm lucky while at higher speeds. And as far as directional, no the sheet is flat and just opens straight up, no louvres one way or the other.

Not much, used leftover roof rail to make a slide for my military bags, they hold straps, jumper cables etc. Also notched my plastic to make a hitch holder, and made some strap mounts for my jerry can which just got painted army green this week. Next I'm getting locking army tool boxes. Noticing a trend? Lol.

I've posted this before as well, but I Raptor lined the lower half and primed the top half and roof. I will never use another bedliner again since I found them. Next I'm trimming up my front fenders and starting a few other things.
