Default Tailgate Storage

I just ordered my new Smitty Tailgate Gear bag/system, I read on a few postings that people expierience sagging eventually with this due to it being made out of vinyl and not something more strong. What does do everyone think about this? I am thinking about having my wife sew on a heavier canvas backing to it in attempt to possibly correct the issue. Think it would work? or just wasting my time?

if you do get something like this ht tp://www.amazon.com/Prym-Dritz-080074-Eyelet-Eyelets/dp/B001CEAMJC and put a few more eyelets in them and use self tapping screws instead of the piece of junk screw that come with it, then you wont' have a problem

That's a great idea, I will get that for sure, endless uses then rather then hunting down the canvas and having to worry about what it will look like.
