    I had the same Delema. Wanted a new look. Sold my Bull bar, shipping was not that bad. But to sell the Step bars, would need local pick up. So I said screw it, rather have em on until I can get sliders. So I will OR with em, bang em up good, then tell the wifey, this is the reason I need sliders like yesterday:cool::cool::cool:

    I hate nerf bars and tube steps for one reason, when it's raining and I climb in and out of the truck, the back of my pants leg always gets wet...

    If you live somewhere like Portland, OR or Seattle, WA, you have soggy left pants leg like 300 days a year.

    I like Jelly Beans, and think tube Steps suck, but I believe that pleasing the wife is way more important than how cool your truck looks.

    I don't like steps, but I'm married so it doesn't matter.

    I like me some jelly beans...as long as they aren't popcorn or ear wax flavored. And my dog is around to feed the black ones to.

    I drove a 03 dubcab jap Hilux while working in Bosnia.. I smacked my calf on them tube almost everytime I got outta that truck... if the wife really wants a step, put a smaller step on *her side* of the truck.

    You have to keep them for the wife and baby though, or replace them with something else.

    My bf has steps on his Chevy, they look good on his truck and I use them. I'd prefer sliders or n-fabs on mine though.

    And I'm 5'2" and can get into my truck just fine, so whats with all your wives having trouble??

    I do not like jelly beans :D.

    Yes, I'll keep them. I was just on the fence whether it was too much chrome or not...:) I bought the truck basically as is (low miles thankfully).

    It's a good look. You might consider chrome door handles. Im not sure about those aftermarket rear lights. I think the new 09's would be kick ass on your truck.

    You may be right about the tail lights but I'd kill myself before I sported chrome door handles. ;)
