Is there a relatively cheap cover piece that can bolt onto the pinch seam below the vehicle? It doesn't REALLY bother me - but I'm not really wanting steps - and I don't need rock sliders since I don't go rock climbing.

I would love it if there was some sort of black trim piece (even if plastic) that would bolt onto the seam....

Thanks.

Black vinyl wrap works well, I added it to mine under the poison spider rails. The Rubicon rails are probably the cheapest option, but I also believe that rugged ridge makes some pinch seam covers

Go with the takeoff rock rails they saved my Sport S. Wasn’t even off-roading, just pulled out my campsite, made a right turn & forgot about the block cement site dividers. Literally got hung up on my passenger’s side. Hadn’t even lifted it yet, but had $100 rubicon rock rails bolted on. Saved my pinch seam & who knows what else…

Another plug for factory Mojave or Rubicon rock rails, very easy to put on very good finish not cheap like a lot of aftermarket, I took mine off and put an aftermarket set on , but it rusted and steps were a little low, found a set of factory Mopar performance steps for $235 went on easily and are great as they protect the sides from dirt….Jack

A lot of crunching when my rock rails took the brunt, nothing sandpaper & spay paint couldn’t take care of.

A set of the rubicon rock rails off marketplace would be your best bet. I have seen them go from free up to $100. They are easy to bolt on and give it a nice look.
This… or come to Washington! Mine have been on Craigslist for free for 8 months… ??‍♂
