At a glance

Overall sentiment is strongly positive: customers love the improved, more finished look and easy installation, with a few complaints about price and occasional shipping/fit/labeling issues.

What Customers Liked

  • Cleans up the gap between cab and running boards; hides frame/rails/tanks; matches truck well; looks OEM/high-end; embossed logo is a nice touch; frequent compliments.
  • Most report perfect fit on various Ford trucks (F250/F350/F450, F150, Bronco) and with extended step boards; stainless described as flawless and heavy gauge.
  • Generally quick and straightforward (about 20–60 minutes); easy drilling/screwing; some installed alone with minor difficulty.
  • Often described as high quality, well made, nice design; black anodized option appreciated for hiding dirt; packaging sometimes praised.
  • Helps keep road debris off running boards and reduces snow/ice/slush buildup that can block doors in winter conditions.
  • Fast shipping; SharpTruck support praised for promptly replacing items damaged in transit and exceeding expectations.

Things to Consider

  • Repeatedly noted as pricey/expensive for what they are, though many still felt it was worth it.
  • Some say they bend easily, arrived slightly bent/creased, or could be thicker/heavier; caution needed during install and if a foot hits it.
  • A few received creases/bends from shipping; some installed anyway but felt unacceptable at the price.
  • Driver/passenger sides not labeled correctly in at least one case, though easy to figure out.
  • One customer felt length was ~6 inches short vs. bars; another expected different color/option visibility and noted alignment/measurement concerns.
  • One report of needing to drill extra holes/add screws due to OEM running board mounting using fewer screws than expected.

2017 Super Duty Bar Filler Review
5
Product came when promised with good packaging.   The stainless was flawless and of adequate heavy gauge.   Easy to install with exceptional fit.   Has the look and fit usually reserved for OEM parts.  Highly recommend.   It's nice not seeing the frame between the truck body and step bar.
Curved Bar Fillers

Im happy with my Bar Fillers.  The only thing I think would improve it, would be to make it the same length as the bars. They are about 6 inches short.

Better Looking Than Factory Gap

I selected the black anodized aluminum fillers to hide the frame rails and tanks under the truck. I debated getting these for a very long time because of the cost but when I decided to keep my truck instead of trading it in, I went ahead and spent the money.  I am glad I did and glad I chose the black color because my truck is always dirty and the stainless would always look dirty.

I ordered the standard size and they fit my extended step boards perfectly.  Install was very easy and straight forward.  

Sharp Truck was awesome and when my order was damaged in shipping, they very quickly responded to my message and immediately shipped out replacements right away. They exceeded my expectations of customer service.  I have ordered from Sharp Truck before and will continue to do so based on this experience for sure.
Running board fillers

Nice design and fit, love them

have tried to research with no luck. everyone I ask say these are for full length running boards (extended length) on short beds only. looks like the same running boards on the long beds with same Part#. are there something different about the mounting brackets on long bed?

- don scott on 12/28/2017

The wheel to wheel step bars on long bed trucks will be longer so the step bar fillers will not fit properly as they will not be long enough. There would be a gap between the end of the filler and where the board ends.

I have a 2017 Ford f 150 super cab so it’s not a crew cab just has the small back door with a 6.5 ft bed will these fit my truck because the description says these are for a crew cab

- Zack on 3/28/2018

These will not fit the Super Cab trucks, only the full 4 doors vehicles.

The question concerning full length bars , that you answered previously . If I’m not concerned about the gap at the end of filler and wheel well on full length bed. Will they fit bars? Just wanting to protect cab portion from road debris

- Don Scott on 5/17/2018

The mounting brackets on the wheel to wheel step bars for the 8' bed are in different locations than they would be with a 6'9" bed. The fillers will not work with a truck with the 8' for this reason. Since the fillers are 1 piece and custom fit the mounting locations will not match up between the body styles.
