Do these mount at the factory rocker points, or do I need to drill into the frame?

They mount at factory rocker attachment points — no drilling needed. Bolt straight to existing holes using the included hardware kit.

Can I install these myself with basic hand tools?

Yes. You'll need a socket set and jack stands to safely access the mounting points. Plan on 30–45 minutes per side. Refer to your vehicle's service manual for torque specs.

Will the chrome finish hold up, or does it need regular maintenance?

Chrome finishes are durable but benefit from periodic cleaning to prevent water spotting and oxidation. Rinse after exposure to road salt or harsh weather. Black finishes are more forgiving but can show dust easier.
