Removed the plastic rockers, after breaking one after stuffing the rear tires. I didn;t like the holes left after in the door area. so I covered it with non-skid tape. Has anyone else pulled theirs and what did you do? here are a couple pics.
I removed mine a while back. When using the mickey thompson wheels, I was rubbing on everything. I was hoping to get the 4xguard rocker covers but price was a factor. Since I fixed my wheel problems with stock wheels and some spacers I've put my plastic covers back on. But I didn't go as far as you did with the non-stick tape. Looks better that why. I just left mine open.
Later this week I'll paint the picnh weld black. I already like them off. Thinking about Rusty's lower control arms next to fix the rear tire jamming up.
Seriously thinking about taking these off. I hate the plasticy look and cheap feel of them when I bump them. Pretty sure there are some broken tabs already, as they feel loose.
The pinchweld doesn't look as ugly or obvious as I had feared.
The non skid tape cleans it up perfectly, and bonus the kids can use it as step. Maybe I can cover the pinchweld with nonskid as well if that bothers the wife...
Yeah, this is a question of aesthetics. Personally, after I install my SA sliders, I will cut and put those trim pieces back on. Someone else on here has done exactly that with their slider install.
Wow, I've been trying to figure out what to do with those stupid holes seeing that I pretty much broke every connector on my trim. That non slip looks sweet
Great idea and saved me $300. I'm having my Commander painted next week and I wanted to take these trim rails off. Painted seperately since Econo won't paint jams and I didn't want 1/2 painted leaving on body. Taking off I broke every top tab that holds them in place.
