Got my roam steps today. Box was in pretty good shape, but when I opened it, the steps had multiple scratches, There's definitely a packing issue that needs to be resolved. Some expansion foam in a plastic bag should fix it.

It didn't upset me 'cause I know I will put some scratches on them wheeling, but I see how this can easily upset people.

I took a black spray paint and touched up the scratches, and while I was at it, decided to paint the pinch seams. This is a very good option for people who can't stand them, specially if you have a light color jeep.

Damn. That's a LOT of scratching. Good on you for resolving it yourself.

could someone please tell me what bolts are needed to install the Roam steps? I've been waiting for a week for a bag of hardware from Anthony that never came with mine. I did try emailing again yesterday to see if he had sent them but it's been silent. If someone is able to tell me the length,size, thread pitch and how many of each I'd really appreciate it.

It’s hard to tell, does it cover the pinch seam like the rubirails do?

SEVERAL posts back I asked about caps or plugs for the holes where the lights are on the ROAM sidesteps. Either nobody answered or I missed a response. They appear to be 3/8”. I bought these at Lowes and, in the dark, they look to be a perfect fit. I will update tomorrow with a picture of them in the sidesteps as I didn’t have my phone with me when I test fitted one tonight.

Could you post a pic of the steps after spray painting? I also received scratched Roam steps and nobody is answering my emails. Thanks!!

Thank you @TTEChris !!!!!
Looks awesome! Not so bad once you get into it right?
Just time consuming...

I've been playing around with some black vinyl trying to fill in the Compass for the "O" in ROAM, but I have zero artistic ability and can't even cut a proportional diamond shape :headbang:
