Finally got around to it getting the aluminum treadplate sills made and powder-coated same time I was getting the tail light guards made.
- I had nicked the sill so much the light gray cladding was showing in the scuffs. So I touched up the entire sill with ShowRoom New dye.
- I had them center it along the sill
- Used the existing screws and cladding screws.
- It's .032" thick aluminum.
- The Powder-coat is a dark charcoal/blackish color with loss gloss and is an extra durable type. I picked this color to go with both the almost matte cladding, and the higher gloss black sliders
- I had them wrap it down around the lowest part of the cladding even though it shows because that edge gets beat to crap by my left foot in/out. It's not fitting completely flush against the cladding there. I may have them bend it a bit more to snug up against the cladding, or just leave it. There's plenty of room for drainage too.
- The RockyRoad Super sliders completely protect that lower part, so very unlikely anything will snag on the front edge of the treadplate even though it's down low....
- I can still have that part chopped off if I want, but not sure how they'd finish that edge....cuz the flat/top part still needs protection.
- I know they look a bit dumb, but "I'm special"
and they serve my needs. (Had to put them on Dave's RZR too)
RESULTS:
- Priceless....
