Help Deciding on Next Ride ...Update: Bought!

Chances are its a third party vendor. The chrome in the Denali boards faces outward. The trim on the power boards faces down. I'm sure with the front wheels shooting rocks and whatnot toward the bottom of that power board, stainless was the way to go. The chrome would just chip.

Mmm I dunno, the oval boards that I just took off and sold were on the truck for almost a year ... after I washed them and windexed them the chrome was spotless and exactly the same underneath as above. Chrome, if applied correctly, is very resilient to the elements ... in fact probably more so than stainless steel, or at least just as much.

Thought those oval boards were aluminum? They were chrome plated? Maybe that's why GM doesn't offer them as a factory upgrade?

Completely chrome plated but the step pads and the end caps.
But they are a GM oem accessory.

I know they are a GM accessory.

Remove the stainless piece and chrome plate it.

 

[soulsea]

That would indeed be the plan.

I wouldn't use Windex on chrome serge

 

[soulsea]

Just used it once before I bubble wrapped them to ship 'em.

I'm guessing/hoping that won't damage them.

Ammonia based products are not good on any anything but windows and I wouldn't even use it on my car windows. You should be fine though.
