I like the one in the door jamb, I did a clear bra over areas of concern recently on mine.

It looks good and would protect against paint chipping but it would be a nice water/road salt trap that would speed up the rocker panel rusting out.

This X2!!

Can you tell me more about this? I want to try to save whats left of my rockers but didnt want something that will trap dirt and salt like mentioned.

Just a clear adhesive, cant even tell its on there.
Most window tint places will do it.

I agree, but also protecting from rock chips etc helps too. So long as the surface of the paint isn’t broken it can collect all the salt and water it wants it won’t rust. Now if it gets under the paint somehow.....game over

Looks really good...I like that they go up into the cab. I may have to pick up a set for my Rebel.

Thanks for the pictures!

I didn’t know they went up into the cab until I got them! That was a pleasant surprise!

Very cool! You’ll love them! Just be careful when lining them up front to back. I would suggest starting with the rears from the back to the front because they wrap around the backside of the cab.
