No trail vehicle is finished without rocker panel protection. We lucked out by not denting the rockers before sliders were available for the 100. Once available it was finally time to "relax" on the trails. I got the first set of Slee Sliders off the line. They installed easily, fit very well, and can support the weight of the SUV. While they've been smacked and scraped they are like new and easily touched-up with some satin black paint.
