Do these mount at factory holes or do I need to drill?

These bolt directly at factory rocker points—no drilling. You'll need standard socket wrenches and basic hand tools to tighten fasteners into existing locations.

Does the black finish need any prep or touch-up before installation?

The textured black finish ships ready to bolt on. No painting or prep required. If you want a custom color match later, sand with 320-grit and repaint after install.

Will these scratch or chip if I step on them regularly?

The textured finish is built to handle foot traffic, but scuffs will show on black over time. Touch-up with black spray enamel or automotive paint keeps them looking fresh.
