this years only fall apart if u try to make them fall apart my friends bro has them and he does rails perfectly fine no edge damage and now since the edges are reinforced they will be sick
id get the new ones, its prolly worth the extra bucks to get the new edge design, although i have the 04/05 ones and mine arent too bad. your call, as long as your not 200 pounds and rails are your life it prolly wont matter too much
