Fold-A-Cover G4 or Bakflip G2

I'm ready to purchase a tonneau cover for my 08 CM. I've narrowed it down to these two choices. Opinions please! Which one is better and where is the best place to purchase it?

Thanks

Go with a g4. Kind of pain in the ass to install without deck rail system. Thats what I got.

of those two the G4 for sure is the better cover. The Backflip has too much history of issues and looks like crap after a few months on the truck (from what Ive seen in person). Have you looked at the advance G3, looks like a really nice cover as well. Advance Cover - Our Products

I have a G4 as well and I'd recommend it... I know a couple of guys that have the G2 and their whether strips and cover itself look warped. Must be the vegas heat/sun though.

It sticks up a little above the bed. As of water a bit of leak but if you install it very flush and proper you should have a problem. Locking system is pretty good. everything is kinda pain in the ass if you do it yourself. Let me know if you got any other questions.
