Went to the dealer yesterday and he wants $1,200 to remove the running boards and put some kind of trim piece in its place.
Yeah I am on the fence. When I ordered mine, my sales guy talked me out of it. Saying I would get my dress pants dirty. Also if you get snow on it, when it freezes over, you can't open your door. Plus people have stated the aluminum part leaves unsightly water stains. It's funny, I don't have it on mine, so I want it. But I am afraid once I have it, I will end up hating it...
