Nerf Bars for '08 SR5

[Captainfrat]

What's going on everybody,

Wanted to see if you all have pics/recommendations for some stainless nerf bars on my SR5... I have stock running boards on now but I like the look of the nerf bars.

Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks!

I got mine on Ebay for like $129, Polished SS. Can't remember the vendor. Everything was new, install went fine. I like the look. There's more pictures in my garage.

looks great Doug... any regrets, or any "I wish they were lower or, I wish they were higher, or I wish they were this instead of that..."???

I want to make sure there's enough room for my feet to fit on them comfortably. on some I've seen, it looks like the bar is too close to the bottom trim of the door frame and you cant get your foot in there.... just a thought.

I thought the stock running boards were less functional. I really don't use them to step on except to clean and wax. They seem to hold me fine. I like the look much better. Some people have said the stock running boards keep your rocker panels from getting salt etc, but seems to me that they would collect more. I keep my rig pretty clean, so I don't worry about that. All in all I am satisfied with the look and functionality. I wipe them off with a towel to keep them looking good. I try to wipe the whole rig off quickly in the winter after I get it in the garage. Used to ride Harley's for 30 years, so keeping stuff clean isn't a real issue once you get in a routine and have rags around

Doug, these look familiar?
