Hey Waldorf, are those just for decoration? They look too close to the Beast to be used as steps.

I think these look amazing on the Nitro....like big chunky side skirts? are these 'Mopar running boards'? I'm gonna order these for my black SXT!

Yeah I decided on that for practical purpose - you can actually step on them, and they act as giant mudflaps along the sides.I think these look amazing on the Nitro....like big chunky side skirts? are these 'Mopar running boards'? I'm gonna order these for my black SXT!

For those considering side steps, buy them and install them yourself - they are easier to install than a basic lego set. All the holes and brackets are there - you just bolt them on in 5 minutes.

They compliment the black front air dam very nicely. I like them.

Thanks canadianlimey, they also look integrated (slot around the wheel arches) and match the lower skirts, and the reason why I decided not to chrome the mirrors and the door handles to keep the dark look consistent. I am now half decided about taking off the after-market chrome grills
They are Mopar parts that you can get from any Dodge dealer or reseller.

yeah, my dealer says for around £400 GBP though! that's around $780! Very steep for ABS running boards. Seems cheaper to buy the US mopar ones then ship 'em in?!Thanks canadianlimey, they also look integrated (slot around the wheel arches) and match the lower skirts, and the reason why I decided not to chrome the mirrors and the door handles to keep the dark look consistent.

it very well maybe cheaper, but might not. I don't know about the UK, but to bring stuff into Canada, can cost an arm and a leg in brokerage fees and import duties and yes GST (govt taxes!)...

Heheh, that 's not my place. I was doing a favour for someone...and tested out how my CRD hauled a trailer - felt nothing, the only tricky part is reversing. But yes, I can be hired for anything
I picked up a set of chrome side rails on ebay for $180 (inc shipping & pa sales tax). I installed them today. I'll see if I can get a pic on here as soon as I can.
I'm also vertically challenged and needed a way to wash/wax the roof without having to get out the step ladder all the time! lol

That is a good point if when you have a roof rack.
I have to stand on the door sills with the door open to get my skis and snowbards off. That would be tough if I have a car parked on either side.
