Master Thread: Review of the EV Sportline RMaxx Running Boards/Sliders (from Team 1EV)

[Lizardo]

I’ll simplify the viable options for you by saying the grommets won’t work for all eight 4” holes. Go Gorilla, or go home! ?

Following your other threads.

Just opened mail today and wondered what the box was. Opened it up and it was the grommets. Forgotten I had ordered them (feels like ages ago)

Right, slow boat from China! Grommets continue to arrive at my house almost daily! I think I shut the pipe off, finally. If anyone in Seattle wants grommets fast, DM me. I have 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and 100mm packages of 12’. F me!

And plastic caps too…

Maybe I should start a “Kickstarter” or “Go fund me” page, for prototyping project expenses… ?

Any new installs???

I ended up placing an order today for the plain running boards. Im not super handy on non-computer things and im more of a measure 2x and cut 3x type so we'll see how it goes with the plastic bits.

So I got my boards today via FedEx Delivery. They left a 8 foot long box standing on the side of my house and never even rang the doorbell but that's not EV's problem. They delivered once I got my notification that my boards were produced and I appreciate them taking the time to do it right - now that is. So my next step was calling the location for install in Van Nuys since I am only like 20 minutes away; what business is closed on a Thursday, I ask you?

So, they were “closed” today? Maybe that location is not a retail location, but they open it up on certain days to accommodate the RB installation accommodation promise?

Picked up the gorilla tape at Lowes. Unexpected new home project of fixing weather stripping on the garage

They may install for you but I'll say I think I understood that they'd either ship or install for you(since shipping is expensive), not both.

Now, get to installing those bad boys! We need more sealing stories and methods!

It's all good, i am actually pretty handy on my own. So i installed them last night and they came out. Here are photos of the final product.
