Airplex Low Profile Tonneau Cover — Chevy Colorado
A flush-fit hard cover built specifically for the Chevy Colorado’s 5 ft bed, sitting below the top of the bed rail for a clean, factory-integrated look. Mounts with bed rail clamps — no drilling required.
Shop This CoverOverview
This low profile cover is built specifically for the Chevy Colorado’s 5 ft bed — designed to sit flush below the bed rail rather than sit up on top of it like a standard hard folding cover. That flush fit does two things: it keeps the truck’s factory lines clean instead of adding visible bulk, and it reduces wind resistance at highway speed compared to a raised cover.
Under the low profile shell, the panel is still a rigid, load-rated hard cover — you’re not trading security for looks. Chevy Colorado owners who care as much about how the truck looks parked in the driveway as how the cover performs on the road tend to reach for this style over a standard hard folding cover.
Built From
Panel Construction
A low-profile aluminum-framed composite panel sits flush with the bed rail while still supporting distributed static weight.
Seals
EPDM rubber rail and tailgate seals keep the flush-fit profile weathertight in rain and road spray.
Hardware
Corrosion-resistant mounting hardware keeps the low-profile clamp system secure at highway speed.
Finish
A UV-stable matte finish resists fading and matches the clean, factory-integrated look this style is built for.
Confirming Your Chevy Colorado’s Fit
Bed length has to match exactly for the flush profile to seat correctly against the rail. This cover is built for the Chevy Colorado’s 5 ft bed — check your bed length on the door jamb sticker or in your owner’s manual before ordering, since the Chevy Colorado is also sold with 6 ft bed options depending on cab configuration.
How Installation Works
- Clean the bed rails. Wipe down the factory rail where the low-profile clamps will sit.
- Position the panel. Set the cover squarely on the rail so it sits flush and even on both sides.
- Clamp and torque. Hand-tighten the included clamps, then torque them down evenly.
- Check the flush line. Confirm the panel sits level with the bed rail along its full length.
- Test the latches. Open, close, and lock the cover to confirm smooth operation before your first drive.

Yes. It ships in pre-assembled sections and mounts with included rail clamps — most owners complete the install solo in under an hour.
