Trail Cladding | Tailgate Protector | Jeep Wrangler JK/Wrangler Unlimited (07-18)

Your Jeep Wrangler’s tailgate takes a beating—whether it’s hauling gear, tearing up trails, or handling everyday wear and tear. All that action can add up, leaving behind dents, dings, and scratches that make your tailgate look worse for wear. Rough Country’s Tailgate Protector is built to guard your tailgate from damage, letting you dive into every adventure without stressing over chipped paint or bent metal. Heavy-Duty Protection: Made from durable high-density thermoplastic, this tailgate protector is built to withstand the roughest trails and the harshest conditions, keeping your tailgate in mint condition no matter what. Fade-Resistant Finish: With its UV-resistant design, our protector keeps looking fresh, no matter how many sunny days your Jeep spends out on the trail. Easy 3M Adhesive Installation: No drilling, no headaches. Just peel and stick using the included 3M automotive adhesive—easy enough that you’ll spend more time wheeling and less time wrenching. Removable for Stock Look: Decided to sell or just want your Jeep looking factory fresh again? No worries. This tailgate protector can be removed, taking your ride back to stock without leaving any scars behind. 3-Year Limited Warranty: We stand by our gear. With a 3-year limited warranty, you can hit the trail knowing we’ve got your back (and your tailgate). From hitting the trails to daily driving, our Tailgate Protector gives your Jeep the extra layer of protection it needs.
