Hello
I bought my wife a base model 2004 with xtra cab and we’re looking for something to protect the top of the bed: I was looking at purchasing something like this

https://www.carid.com/westin-automotive/westin-platinum-series-universal-bed-side-rails-76222269.html?parentsubmodel[]=BED+LENGTH|6'+(74.5")+Bed#reviews

Are there any recommended styles or brands? My wife moves furniture around the city, and its her truck so I am not allowed to get anything too aggressive.

Is there anything else I should know before ordering? This is our first truck, so I’m learning from the bottom

Is there a benefit between chrome and polished stainless steel?
