Hmmmm... I have an A.R.E. CX series cap. Can't tell you much about the
strength except to say it looks and feels pretty damn strong (never stood on it
nor do I beat on it much :-). As far as the fit and finish goes, I can
definitely say they do an A-1 job. The paint match was perfect (emerald green)
and I've had zero trouble with the latches, glass hinges or anything else for
that matter. I've got nothing against leer (I looked at them first), but when I
checked out the A.R.E.'s they just looked and felt like a better product IMO.
Good luck.
Tom

<<I want the flush windows, tight fit look like the Leer. I'm looking at the
A.R.E. Z series caps, very nice, but I'm not sure about their strength etc.
Does anyone have an A.R.E cap? I understand their tonneau lids are very nice.
I'll be putting a rack on top for a canoe eventually, so strength is
important.>>
