Do you reckon they will stop a car door banging into the door?

Not my cup of tea, prefer the OEM side bars.

Side Steps

   

How can these be ghastly?

I have seen other versions fitted and they really look crap!

These steps are all aluminium and stainless steel and put together with nuts and bolts, not cheap pop rivit fixes. Shocked

I like them but I think you should add roof rails as well now. Without them the top seems a bit naked combined with the sidesteps.

Then it will start to morph into a shogun! Don't add roof rails

+1, no practical purpose at all. Even my 80+ year mother in law can get into a RRE without side steps!
