For those of you who have rubber cemented leather discs to the lift a DOT Fasteners on your tonneau cover. Did you put those suede side out, or smooth side out? Just wondering! It is probably a task I will look at on the next rainy day!
I stuck mine with suede side out. It will not stop marking of the paint completely but will help greatly. Having such changeable weather I run with passenger side on most of the time.

I rarely drive with any part of the tonneau on, and then only short distances. The only mod I've made is to glue some leather under end of zip at rear.
It occurs to me that adding anti-scuff material to the underside of the fasteners might actually increase the likelihood of paintwork damage though if dust and grit get underneath.
