OK, so it sounds like superficial scratches only... nothing serious then.

Yes, they were superficial, but the bad ones were clearly done at the factory where they were made. The packing was the foam and saran wrap as yat74 said, but mine were heavily wrapped. There were a few chips that I guess could have happened during shipping, from banging against something, but both ends looked like the were being carried and were dropped on a concrete floor and scrapped along while walking. That's what ticked me off. It was clearly just the builder being clumsy and careless. All they had to do was offer me a t-shirt or something and I would have walked away happy. Just bad service. But, like I said, I'd still buy them again. So I guess the jokes on me.

..it's not very cool that manufacturer ships out stuff in less-then-perfect shape, no matter if it is only cosmetic flaw. I think it's your right to do the damage yourself, not have it dented from the factory already. I'm glad that I went with OEM's; they were blemish free, perfectly packaged in the huge carton. I used the carton to store the chrome nerf bars (will come handy when selling the truck, since most "non-elcova" people do like chrome a lot..)

Mine just had some of the black paint scratched off, so I had them Line-X'ed and it gives them a little grip when using them as steps. The pics shows them not level with the body but it's just an illusion.



The best part is if somebody in a car flings their door open it'll hit the rail instead of the truck.
