If you paint it or wrap it, it will look a mess just after your first outing as it will get chipped. A vulnerable area is that.

No. Not a Star Wars fan.

But I agree, anything on the side steps will chip off,

I have side tubes and they could do with a sandblast and powder coat as the paint is flacking off now

Personally if you matt black the silver edge you won't see the steps........ It's the silver on the steps that make them stand out.

I don't have steps on my MY14, thankfully as I think it looks much better without, but did have on my previous MY10.

I tried painting those edges but after one motorway trip in monsoon conditions the shot blast effect had stripped off about 6-8 inches at the front,

Net result I ended up stripping all the paint off.

I am sure wrapping would also suffer from stones being thrown up from the front wheels MY2010 TDV8 purchased Jan 2017

I wonder if the vinyl might be more forgiving than a paint, instead of chipping off, it might just puncture, but that will allow water in I assume

If seen most revere models with painted side steps, must say they do look good on black sports, if you like the pimp daddy look.

Mine is a Revere with painted side steps. You get the odd chip but really very rarely and I just spray Matt black BBQ spray and it brings it back. I didn't like them black at first but now I prefer it.

i got a tin of plastic dip and did mine white on my old sport and it was better than just paint as they didnt chip of

Steps the side please paint 2006 RRS Supercharged 4.2 HST muthuaflecka!
