What is everyone using to shave their tailgates with? Full skin or insert? Who builds the best solution?

I just made one where I work the other day. I do custom sheet metal fabrication in SW MO. We use all CNC brakes and rolls, so stuff we make looks real good. I could send some pictures of it in a few days (it is at work right now). Let me know and maybe I could make another.

FBI's skin is a complete replacement, which requires less filler than an insert. The top extends 1" into the interior bed area, and there is a 1/2" 90 degree bend at the bottom that you can fold over and weld to secure it to your shell. Oh, and it's 18 gauge steel, laser cut and formed on a computer controlled pressbrake.
