Bed Step ups

[BioTex]

I need som opinions.
I have the 2 brackets, and one step (the sheet metal).
I can't decide if I should install the steps or not. Certainly easier to not, but I notice there are not many truck out there with them installed.
I have even seen people use wooden ones. What do you think?

Bio,
I have seen many varieties of steps put on these vehicles. Wood, Aluminum diamond plate, square tubing, I've even seen thich smoke color plexiglass. In MY OPINION nothing comes close to the original step.

A functioning step is my vote....makes the p/u look nicer...and as talented as you are, I'm sure it will look nice too!

Thanks guys! I think...
Now I have to find the missing step, and do more bodywork. Ugh!
