They are after market "accessories" no where near what the factory puts on.........which in most cases you can't get.
Take a look at mine, I think the pix are just above yours. Mine are even lower than factory.

I purchased mine from: PT925-89140 | Toyota OEM Parts |*RUNNING BOARDS | Genuine Toyota*

They look all black, but actually have a silver stripe that runs the length.

Thank you!!

Thank you for that information! No we have the SR5 model and not the Limited. The dealer should have known which model number goes with our 4Runner. Now to call. Thanks again..

Personally I can't stand the look. The gap between the door and the step is not pleasing to the eye. Shouldn't they only install OEM parts and not aftermarket parts that apparently do not fit? Thanks

Bought the car 8/5/15 and had the dealer add the running boards. I was never told they would be aftermarket boards. (Discovered recently) I had called the dealer 1 week after install and they said the boards were normally low like my pics. Do I have a case in requesting them to swap out the boards for the correct ones? Hope so? Any thoughts??? Help. Thanks!

really depends on the dealer. unless you specified OEM running boards they can sub anything they want.

if your doing OEM

those look like the oem R6 running boards but installed incorrectly.

you can also fit the oem KH rigid running boards (they are the thin black ones that come on the trail editions only).

but since you said they are not OEM, aftermarket running boards are a fit all solution so they wont look right.

Finally have the correct running boards installed!

Dealer came through and apologized for installing the incorrect running boards. As my grandmother always said, 'The squeaky wheel always gets the oil!
