05 Sport 4x4 4runner cladding!!!

Is the plastic cladding discontinnued on 2005 models? I called one of the dealers and the salesman told me that the cladding comes with painted only. Any input greatly appreciated.!

THe only UNPAINTED cladded 4runners are the in the first half year of the 2003's. After 2003 all runners had the smooth cladding and painted.

Thanks toybox, I am new to 4runner, I was gonna buy the 04 Sport V6 last year, but wife didn't like it so I bought her the CR-V instead, now it's my turn. I've been looking at the 2005 Salsa Red V8 Sport and it's a beauty. Any problems with the Sport V8 I should know before I buy?
Thanks

Don't just look at it, BUY IT!

I wanted a Salsa V-8 Sport and there were none to be found so I have a Natural White.

You will like it.

I absolutely love this truck! With all my previous Toyota trucks power was always my main issue. SOLVED Feels like a lexus on the inside and when your driving it, and it has all the power and acceleration that I need.

There have been some issues like the sunroof rattle and my frozen blower motor (all fixed no problem) but they could never overshadow how great this truck is, and no truck is perfect anyway (I have realistic expectations)
