When I ordered my Nitro I ordered the chrome sidesteps from the Nitro accessories brochure.

When I picked up the car they had a set of black plastic ones on, that aren't even the same as in the brochure. We have had a bit of a fight with the salesman (including him telling us we could buy another set) they are ordering in the chrome ones.

He said they have to come from Singapore and will take about 2 weeks.

My question to you guys is that in the brochure it says the chrome and the black tube ones are stamped with the dodge emblem, so can anyone tell me where they are stamped just so I can make sure I am getting the real deal. As it is they charged us nearly $1800 for them here in Australia.

thanks in advance for your help!

wow! that's a lot of $$$ for side steps! I bought my chrome tubular rock rails (sorry if this is not what you are looking for) from the dealer and it cost me about $500 Canadian, installed! The parts department ordered them from the warehouse and they were in at the dealer in 2 days. I ordered my bug deflector at the same time and they installed all of that in an hour. I think they are hosing you, look around to other places, if it's not too late. I suppose it costs a fortune to get parts brought in from the US, maybe that's where the expense is coming from. I have to pay duties and brokerage and stuff sometimes for accessories coming in from the US too.

Good luck and keep us posted, post some pics when you do get them installed!

Yeah the Dodge sticker isn't worth a $1,000! Sorry they are running you around with that.

Yee that's terrible, in West Oz they are $1600. Buy it from US, even with $500 shipping(!!!) and 10% duty, you are still ahead.
