Step Bars-Need Opinions

I have a white 08 CC SE 2wd and i will be putting some step bars on soon. I like the Go Rhino Dominator II. My question is which one do yall think would look better on my truck the black powder coated or stainless steel.

If anyone has these on a white Titan could you please post a pic.

Thanks for your help.

Black all the way. Especially if you don't have any chrome already.

Re: Step Bars-Need Opinions

although i have them on my truck (wife needs them to get in), i'd vote against either of them.

but to answer your question, stainless would look a lot better.

Why? I'm also thinking of getting these the only difference is my truck is the silver color with the chrome handles. I would just like your reasons.

Personally, even though I have nerf bars for my truck, i find them a bit distracting. Initially, I didn't, but the more i look at my truck, i feel it takes away from the lines of the truck. instead of looking at the truck, and seeing the lift, wheel/tire combo, or even suspension, the eyes get drawn to the steps first. I'd like to invest in a set of Powersteps, but I don't have the funds to do so. only reason i keep them is b/c my wife wouldn't be able to get in my truck any other way (she's only 5 foot)

However, this is just my opinion, and i don't mean for it to be a knock on anyone's decision.

Thanks guys

I'm not a huge fan of step bars but they will make it easier for my wife and kids to get in and out of the truck.

Re: Step Bars-Need Opinions

I agree that step bars take away from the looks of the truck but provide a lot of functionality. They save the sides of your seats from wear and make getting in and out of the beast much easier. Kind of a necessary evil. Oh yea, I would go with the factory dark silver or black for your truck.

Re: Step Bars-Need Opinions

I like the stainless, they seem to look nicer longer. I always notice black ones rusting.

Re: Step Bars-Need Opinions

i dont have a white TITAN, but i think that black look great on any vehicle. would be less likely to draw attention to themselves.

Re: Step Bars-Need Opinions

I recently got (last week) black GoRhinos. I like them, but will love them when I get black "steps"

My truck looked really naked without them on, glad I got them. Also, my AZN GF puts that shlt to use. muwahahhaa.

Oh, and it was a toss up with N-FAB and GoRhino.

THIS GUY is selling some N-FABS and lives ONE exit from me!!! I would have probably got these, but I didn't see until AFTER I ordered my GoRhinos.

Yours was the first ones i've seen. They look good on your truck. The black and dark gray kinda blind together. I'm leaning towards the stainless. They are about $200 more, but I won some $ on the super bowl.

Thanks for the reply.
