Do these bolt directly to the factory rocker panel?

Yes. They mount at factory rocker attachment points with no drilling or frame modification. You'll need basic hand tools and appropriate fasteners for steel-to-steel connection.

Will the black finish hold up to road salt and weather?

Powder coat is designed for outdoor durability, but regular washing and occasional touch-ups extend life, especially in high-salt or coastal environments.

Can I install these myself?

Installation is DIY-friendly if you're comfortable with hand tools and following a bolt-on process. No welding or cutting required. Refer to your vehicle's service manual for torque specifications.
