Tired of those punched out logos in the steps and sports bar? Less than $4 and you can customize to the body color, even add reflkective backing for the red and the white trucks.

 

Loosen the Torx screws holding the step plate to the bar and insert red or white reflective strips used for mailboxes or a color co-ordinated strip cut from the cover of a plastic foldover from the stationary section. slip behind the punched out logo, retighten screws to hold in place and it jumps out. Great as a side reflector at night. Same goes for the punched out logo in the sail of the sports bar.

I like this alot, my truck is blue but I think I might try the red, it would blend right in with the Z71 and Trail Boss logos.  So you used the Red Mail Box strips they sell at HomeDepot?

[Thomcat]

If I had a tri coat white or if I had chrome bumpers or trim I would have gone with the white. Reds come 4 per pack and need 2 per side for length, invisibly joined under the gap between two letters .

Are these steps the same on the Sierra and Silverado?

 

i purchased the AT4 getting it this week I haven’t seen it in person yet And it has “accessory off road assist step” 

 

i can’t find good pictures of them anywhere.

Hard to say , so many different step combos.

Nice write up, started looking for a video.

 

Think you have a calling in the informercial world.

 

Looks good on the truck too, great idea!

The real issue with these is they are slippery as all hell when wet.

 

thinking of getting mine coated in bed liner.

My steps are not slippery when wet whether with boots or shoes, indented foothold and large D driver's assist handle that GM finally had enough brains to make standard on the '19s...(no more grabbing the steering wheel to get in). And they're not finished with just paint, but some matte finish scuff proof material ......might be slippery with ice, no more so any other steps.

 

If you want slippery, just coat them with the GM spray in bed liner - so slippery even when dry, had to use a rubber mat (previous one from the '16 trade was a good fit) to keep stuff from rolling around.

Just purchased a 2020 AT4 that has these steps on them. Take delivery tomorrow and can't wait to drive this truck. LOVED that it had these already installed on it as I love the look better than the other steps available.

Same! I haven’t seen it in person though I’d love to see what they even look like. 
 

are they same as the Chevy and just say Sierra?

I can't say for sure as I saw them in the dark last night when I was buying it. I'll find out more tomorrow and I'll take pics and post here for you.
