Our Bare Bones Edition removes the step (and tread plates) to deliver streamlined off-road protection. Tucked in close to the body (replacing the OEM plastic rocker panels) you can hardly tell they're there, but they still provide industry leading off-road protection, smooth 'boat bottom' design and easy installation. They’re perfect for anyone looking for a purpose built protection option for their WK2.

Off-Road ProtectionProvides off-road protection for the rocker panels and lower doors of your WK2. Our design also provides protection for the body seam and wiring loom that run along the underside of your WK2.
High-StrengthMade from High-Strength Steel with a design that incorporates more body connections than our competitors to improve rigidity and provide significantly better impact force distribution. Through FEA computer modelling and (8) months of real world testing we've delivered high-strength rock rails that you can rely on when you need them most.
Great StyleOur design team paid attention to every line, so we could deliver rock rails that compliment the lines of your WK2 with a fully integrated appearance. Open the doors and you immediately notice the attention-to-detail with our streamlined design and flush mounting bolts. Best of all, we provide (2) tread plate options so you can stylise your WK2 Rock Rails however you choose. The dual layer design of the tread plates utilises a silver lower plate that looks great and provides an instant wow factor.
ConvenienceThe steps have been optimised to keep obstacles away from the sides of your WK2, while also providing easy entry (or convenient access to your roof rack). Through real-world testing we ensured you could easily step out over the steps without hitting your leg. We even tested our tread plates to ensure small feet (or paws) wouldn't have troubles with the openings in the tread plates.
Maintains Off-Road ClearanceSince our design replaces the OEM plastic rocker panels, (rather than bolting below) it maintains maximum off-road clearance.
Jack PointsWe supply (1) reinforced jack point (front & rear) on the underside of each rock rail, for a total of (4) high-strength jack points. The small square openings allow drainage and are reinforced to support the entire weight of the vehicle.
Smooth 'Boat Bottom' DesignOur smooth 'Boat Bottom' design ensures that you can easily slide over off-road obstacles. There's nothing to get caught on off-road and all of the mounting bolts are tucked away and protected.
Easy To InstallMany rock rails for the WK2 are very difficult to install. Some can take up to (8) hours, while others require drilling and numerous nutsert installs. As a point of difference, our engineering team has delivered an install process that is extremely easy. We provide easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. If you're half-way decent with a wrench you can install this yourself.
Industry Leading Corrosion ProtectionWe utilise E-Coat (Electrophoretic Coating) to provide the very highest corrosion protection available for steel automotive parts. Deposited from a water-based solution using a high voltage DC charge, the process coats all wet surfaces with an extremely tough and highly corrosion resistant finish that is unlike any other process. On top of that industry-leading electrophoretic coating we apply 80µm of extremely durable powder coat (advanced polyester thermosetting powder). Finally, whenever possible we build our products with highly corrosion resistant materials and fasteners (stainless steel, aluminium alloys, etc.) to provide enduring protection against corrosion when a coating is scratched or damaged off-road.
Real World TestingThere aren’t many off-road companies who own a WK2 as their daily driver, or regularly take it all over Australia in search of off-road adventures. In our opinion, that extra testing and passionate attention to performance leads to superior products.
Top Quality Finishing TouchesWe include all the details that matter. High tensile zinc plated bolts for maximum strength and corrosion resistance. Wedge-Lock washers to create bolted joints that are extremely resistant to loosening. Anti-Seize for bolted joints that are resistant to seizing. A Chief Products Shop Rag for all the dirty jobs around the garage. All packaged with extreme care to arrive safely and looking great. -

* Fits USA & Export models.** The OEM fender flares on Summit, High Altitude, SRT & Trackhawk extend further into the wheel wells than other WK2 models. We've chosen not to extend our WK2 Rock Rails to match these flares because it would limit the ability to install larger tyres.INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS -

Excellent Approach AngleSince our design doesn't extend below the mounting brackets, the approach angle (an important aspect off-road) is significantly better than other nudge bars.
Parking Sensor CompatibilityThrough careful engineering & testing we've delivered a nudge bar that is 95% compatible with the parking sensors on all WK2 models.
High StrengthOur innovative mounting system uses steel tabs on the bottom of each bar to lock the bar securely to (2) 20mm high-strength steel mounting arms. This high-strength design means there will be minimal vibrations for your accessories when you're off-road.
Highly Scratch ResistantBy using 304 Stainless Steel (which has a higher hardness rating than Aluminium) we're able to provide a nudge bar with much better scratch & wear resistance.
Low Installed WeightOnly 10.6kg when fully installed. This is extremely light when compared to a Bull Bar which often weighs 40kgs (alloy) - 90kgs (steel).
Accommodates Numerous Lighting & Accessory OptionsThe accessory mounting tab is slotted across its entire length, allowing you to install lights or accessories however you choose.
Contoured To FitThe accessory mounting tab is contoured to match the curvature of the WK2 grille, so it integrates perfectly with the front of the WK2.
Compatible With Front Recovery PointsCan be installed with Chief Products WK2 Recovery Hooks & WK2 Recovery Points, (which can be installed on driver & passenger sides and are engineer rated to 4,500kg). Due to mounting restrictions, many nudge bars don't allow you to install any front recovery points with their bar.
Compatible With Adaptive Cruise ControlThrough careful engineering & testing we've delivered a nudge bar that is compatible with the adaptive cruise control system on all WK2 models.
Guards Against Damage During RecoveryThe mounting brackets are designed to stop recovery straps or bow shackles from hitting the bar during an off-road recovery.
Easy To InstallWe provide easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. If you're half-way decent with a wrench you can easily install this yourself. We've even designed the mounting brackets so they swivel slightly during installation to make things as easy as possible.

Finally, whenever possible we build our products with highly corrosion resistant materials and fasteners (stainless steel, aluminium alloys, etc.) to provide enduring protection against corrosion when a coating is scratched or damaged off-road.
Mirror Polish That LastsOur mirror polished 304 Stainless Steel keeps looking good for longer. Polished aluminium bars tend to develop a white haze from oxidation that causes them to lose their lustre.
