Default Minimalist cab steps

I like the way my 05 Screw 4x4 looks w/o any cab steps. Unfortunately, the driver's seat has suffered with the outside foam collapsed and the leather cracked due to drivers sliding out of the cab. I found a source for new seat foam and leather, but the problem is just going to come back unless I add some cab steps so that whoever is getting out doesn't have to slide out and down, crushing the outside edge of the seat over and over....

So, I'm looking for a quality set of cab steps that will not break up the lines of the truck any more than necessary. I'm thinking 4 individual steps would probably work best. I would like them to use existing holes in the frame to attach, if possible, in order to avoid having to drill . I have't decided if I want chrome or black yet. I live in the rust belt, so corrosion resistance is very important. Any suggestions?

I really like the RBP nerf bars but they are pretty pricey. I'm in your same position, I just took my factor running boards off because I didn't like them but fortunately I'm tall enough to step in and out without dragging on the seat.

Yep, I think that's what I'm looking for, thanks!
