Default Anyone find diamond plate or aluminum bed rail caps?

Has anyone found diamond plate or even plain aluminum bed rail caps?

I got a Thule Xsporter rack and it doesn't really work with the stock bed rail caps. With the gap between the caps and the rails, when you tighten the clamps it tilts the mount enough that the mounts/bases score the poles when you raise and lower them and they are hard to raise lower. It looks like crap under my factory caps so I need something that sits flush and covers that up.

I just found that Autozone can special order the Daws/Better Build Diamond Plate bed rail caps for only $65 !!! They are on Autozones site as well. Ask for the part numbers from the following web page Better Built® Product - Bed Rail Caps
Just ordered them so i'll have to update on the quality.
