I have one on my truck (sorry no pics atm) it looks pretty good, but be careful to make sure its straight. it comes with very sticky adhesive, but i actually screwed mine on.

Pictures and install instructions on how you lined it up and got it on straight, is of interest to me as well as I was thinking of adding this to mine

yes i removed the tail gate. then i just eyeballed it into place. I used the sticky strips that it comes with, and then drilled and tapped holes through the mounts to screw it to the truck. In hindsight, eyeballing wasnt the best idea since it kinda ever so slightly droops down on one side. Not too noticeable, but i see it every time.

One thing if you have a 5.5ft bed make sure you cut the metal pin that way it doesnt damage your bar.

Here is mine.
