I think I would be OK tapping and bolting. I am less confident getting the trim off undamaged and cutting the trim to fit the side steps.

trim panels come off easy, loads of screws to undo first, re cutting the panel.... it is already marked on the inside! cut mine by scoring with a Stanley Knife... easy ( the trim is all underneath... ) |

Time consuming if you haven't got the steps!!! To take off and put on. Hardest part, for me i thought was the tapping as never done that before but that turned out to be easy! I put car in off road position couple of axle stands underneath, possibly not best h&s, but. ... Job done. Go for it! |

You can hardly see them, sorry to be a pain, can you take a pic from further away? |

So I can see the car in its entirety, I want to add steps but I am concerned about the aesthetics. |
