I like em, you want a pair that are clean and straight though of course (I found cutting compound is an easy way to clean em up, if you have a spare amount drying out in the bottom of a jar somewhere). I have them factory on my HJ wagon (a prior owner 20 years back fixed that guard change issue with a big fat flat head screw at the end of the strip - not at all advised of course...) I'll get around to fixing that one day. And factory on my tuxedo HX van, gonna keep em.
But, generally, I dunno that the sill side strips are actually rust catchers, not these days anyway if you're looking after the car, the worst I reckon were HZ to WB mid body strips, the rust gets under those over time really well!, but I reckon the HJ/HX sill strips aren't so bad for rust. Done right they can look dang hot too.
(OK just my opinion, slam me gently I had a long week).
