Side steps running boards replacement recommendations please

Hi all, just noticed that my OEM side steps on my 2010 3.6 are rusted through and are about to fall off! I want the OEM look but I need them to be corrosion resistant at least and capable of handling up to 150kg in weight. There seem to be dozens of different types out there. Does anyone have any recommendations please?

I have replaced a few sets from Sports I have purchased that was battered & worse for wear . It was only ever the steps I replaced - the brackets are hidden & didn't seem as rough as the steps themselves. If I remember rightly I never paid moref than £120 & that was for the sets with pre cut plastic sills. The 3 sets was all off fleabay - I have checked my purchase history but it doesn't go back that far Sad
I will have a look & see if I can recognise the seller Thumbs Up I can honestly say they did the job & I am - WAS 22st Big Cry 16MY Estoril Blue SVR.............

I noticed my running boards were getting worse for wear also - so I've ordered a set of ebay for around £110. I'll let you know how I get on - probably be end of July before I get a chance to fit them though.

When you decide, buy a 5ltr can on Waxoyl and paint it on the underside, (incl. brackets) with a brush as you fit them. check once a year and they'll last. 2011 MY D4 HSE

United Kingdom 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Cairns Blue

An hour ago I just got out of the car and as I placed my 104kg on it the silver trim popped off at the leading edge. I tried to pop it back in but it wouldn’t stay. Put it on off road height to have a peek and there is surface corrosion but the first 2 heads of the lugs that keep the trim in the step have gone. So I’ve pressed it against the step drilled a hole at the forward most end just behind the front wheel and bolted it in. You can’t obviously see the bolt and it will keep it going for a bit.

I wonder what the car is like without boards and the subsequent extra slide on the seats. They were on when we bought the car over 2 years ago and my wife finds them useful for getting in out.

Steve. 2006 2.7 TDV6 HSE in Cairns Blue.
