Cargo bag on top of tonneau cover???

[Littlefield82]

I've used a cargo bag like this on the roof of my previous SUV but now that I have a truck I'd like to use it on top of my trifold tonneau cover for extra dry storage when taking family trips to the beach where we bring along a lot of things. I don't see any reason that it won't work but I am concerned about the tie down straps rubbing against the side of the bed when driving and damaging the paint. I guess I'd just hook them under the fenders but I haven't gone under to see what other options there are. Has anyone done something like this and have some tips?

I'll be carrying a bike rack on the hitch so can't use a hitch mounted cargo rack.

I would be very concerned with the straps damaging your paint. The paint doesnt seem to be all that durable to begin with.
