There seems to be some significant difference in the prices of tailgate skins out there, ranging from $99 to $250. What experiences have you had with any of them?

I thought that $250 seemed a bit hot. Do you have Craig Vane's contact details?

Thanks for all the advice guys. Yes, I saw the one on evilBay but its for a wagon, isn't it? I say this 'cos mine has no provision for a badge and this one seems to have a hole in it.
