Nissan Titan Truck Cap – Premium Fiberglass & Aluminum Caps
Our CX-Series delivers the commercial-grade durability Titan owners demand with the refined finish your truck deserves. We build every CX cap from hand-laid fiberglass reinforced with aluminum framework, then paint it to match your factory color using our proprietary color-match system. The aerodynamic roofline reduces wind resistance on highway drives while three side windows with sliding screens give you airflow control when you're loading gear at the jobsite or trailhead.
We designed this cap specifically for both first-generation (2004-2015) and second-generation (2016-present) Nissan Titan beds in 5.5-foot and 6.5-foot configurations. The integrated rotary latch system locks to your Titan's factory tailgate for one-handed operation, and our exclusive weather seal technology keeps dust and moisture out even when you're running unpaved routes.
Precision engineering for Titan bed dimensions
Bed Size Compatibility and Mounting Systems
Every Nissan Titan truck cap we manufacture is engineered for specific bed dimensions across both generations of the Titan platform. First-generation models (2004-2015) use our dedicated mounting clamps designed for their unique bed rail profile, while second-generation Titans (2016-present) require different hardware to accommodate Nissan’s updated bed channel system.
We supply bed-length-specific caps for the Titan’s 5.5-foot short bed and 6.5-foot standard bed configurations. Our installation system uses over-rail clamps that tighten against the bed’s inner and outer walls without drilling into your truck’s painted surfaces. Each cap includes stainless steel mounting hardware with nylon spacers that prevent metal-to-metal contact and the corrosion issues that follow.
Window Configurations and Ventilation Options
Side Window Systems
Our CX-Series and MX-Series Nissan Titan caps come standard with three side windows per side—one in the front section behind the cab and two along the bed’s length. These windows use automotive-grade tempered glass in sliding aluminum frames with locking handles you operate from inside the cap. The screens built into each slider use fine-mesh material that blocks insects while maintaining airflow when you’re parked with gear stored overnight.
Z-Series aluminum caps feature frameless side windows with a different opening mechanism. These windows tilt out from the bottom edge using friction hinges, giving you ventilation control without the horizontal space requirements of sliding glass. We install weather stripping around the entire perimeter of frameless windows to maintain our water-resistance standards.
Paint Matching and Finish Durability
We maintain an active database of Nissan Titan factory paint codes spanning both generations of the platform. When you order a CX-Series fiberglass cap, our paint department uses your VIN or paint code to mix automotive urethane that matches your truck’s exact color, including metallic and pearl finishes. We apply basecoat and clearcoat in our controlled-environment paint booths, then cure each cap at temperatures that crosslink the finish for chip resistance.
Our paint-match process accounts for UV fade on older Titans. If your 2008 Titan has original paint that’s weathered over fifteen years, we can color-match to either your truck’s current faded state or restore it to original factory specifications—most owners choose factory-fresh matching and use the cap installation as an opportunity to have their truck’s cab repainted to match the new cap.

Common Questions About Our Nissan Titan Caps
No, first-generation Titans (2004-2015) and second-generation models (2016-present) require different caps due to changes in bed rail profiles and dimensions. When you order from us, we verify your truck's year, bed length, and cab configuration to ensure you receive the correct cap with generation-specific mounting hardware.
Bed lengths also differ between generations—first-gen Titans offered 5.6-foot and 6.6-foot beds while second-gen models use 5.5-foot and 6.5-foot measurements. We manufacture caps for all four bed length configurations but you must specify your exact truck year and bed size when ordering.
We design our Nissan Titan caps for professional installation through our authorized dealer network. While mechanically inclined owners can install caps using our included instructions and hardware, we recommend dealer installation for several reasons.
Proper installation requires two to three people to lift and position the cap without scratching your truck's bed or cab. Dealers have the alignment jigs and adjustment tools to achieve the precise fit necessary for weather sealing. Most critically, professional installation is required to maintain your cap's warranty coverage—we only honor warranty claims on caps installed by authorized dealers who follow our published installation procedures.
We use bulb-style weather seals around all cap openings—these rubber seals compress against your truck bed and tailgate to prevent water and dust intrusion. You should clean the seals every three months using mild soap and water, then apply silicone-based seal conditioner to prevent the rubber from drying and cracking.
Inspect the seals for compression damage twice per year, particularly the front bulkhead seal that contacts your cab. If you see permanent compression marks or tears, replacement seals are available through our parts department. Most seals last four to six years before requiring replacement. Never use petroleum-based products on the seals as these break down the rubber compound.
Our CX-Series fiberglass caps weigh between 185 and 210 pounds depending on bed length and window configuration. The MX-Series commercial fiberglass caps range from 220 to 245 pounds due to reinforced construction. Z-Series aluminum caps weigh 110 to 130 pounds for the same bed sizes—roughly 40% less than comparable fiberglass models.
This weight difference impacts your Titan's payload capacity and fuel economy. If you regularly haul heavy equipment or materials and need every pound of payload, the aluminum Z-Series preserves more of your truck's rated capacity. For owners prioritizing paint-match aesthetics and sound deadening, the fiberglass CX-Series offers better noise isolation despite the additional weight.
Yes, all our Nissan Titan caps maintain access to your factory tie-down points. The mounting clamps install above the bed rails without blocking the tie-down locations in the bed corners and along the bed sides. You can continue using cargo nets, ratchet straps, and other tie-down accessories exactly as you did before cap installation.
Our caps also preserve access to the bed rail channel system on second-generation Titans. The C-channel rails that run the length of your bed remain functional for sliding cleats and accessory mounts. If you need additional tie-down points inside the cap, we offer supplemental D-ring kits that bolt through existing bed floor holes without requiring new drilling.
We apply the same automotive-grade urethane paint and clearcoat used by vehicle manufacturers, then cure it using the same temperature and timing specifications. Under normal conditions, the paint finish on our CX-Series and MX-Series caps lasts as long as your Titan's factory paint—typically showing minimal fading over ten years of outdoor exposure.
We recommend washing your cap with the same pH-neutral car wash soap you use on your truck and applying carnauba wax or paint sealant twice per year. UV exposure causes all automotive paint to fade eventually, but caps fade at the same rate as your truck's horizontal surfaces like the hood and roof. Most owners don't notice differential fading between their cap and truck because both weather together. Touch-up paint matched to your original paint code is available through our dealer network for addressing rock chips and scratches.
Adding any cap changes your truck's aerodynamics compared to an open bed, but the impact varies by driving conditions. Our caps feature curved rooflines that transition smoothly from your Titan's cab, reducing the aerodynamic penalty compared to flat-top commercial caps.
In highway driving at 65+ MPH, most Titan owners report 1-2 MPG improvement with a cap versus an open bed—the cap eliminates the drag caused by air turbulence in an uncovered bed. In city driving below 45 MPH, the aerodynamic benefit is minimal but the cap's weight (110-245 pounds depending on model) can reduce fuel economy by 0.5 MPG. The Z-Series aluminum cap's lighter weight minimizes this city driving penalty compared to heavier fiberglass models.
