The guy said the genunie is better as apparently the aftermarket tonneau use a button on method at the front instead of the plastic clip. Dont know what fg is like.

What I was getting at was that an aftermarket one may use buttons like they apparently do in the BF. Even the BF has a velcro section around the tube between bungees, no reason you couldn't have the same on the fg rail.
