Hi,
Good to have a post written here for 2003 4Runner roof rack cover replacement yesterday.
I have 2003 SR5 with missing roof rack rear cover on driver side.
I've searched a lot about how to have rear cover but found no solid answer so I decided to state how I can have get it replaced.

When I visit a local dealer, I was told that roof rack covers for 2003 model had discontinued by May 2003 and 2004 model may fit at $95.00 and I can return it if 2004 model part does not fit on 2003. Part# is 63494-35021. Roof rack covers for 2003 has to purchase with entire roof rack unit though which costs about $500.

I've sent local dealers an email around town, and one of dealers answered they didn't have a part but could make it a special order within 1-2 business day. I sent him my VIN to make sure it fits. He told to come and see before purchase. I made a stop to check the part and it fited just fine at $81.00 before tax.
The part# is the same; 63494-35021. You may order it online cheaper. I didn't try to order online because I was not confident. However, you can have it if you have the same issue.

Hope this helps for those of you who are looking for a replacement.

Hmm ,strangley enough my rear drivers side(2003) cover is missing also?..I wonder what's up with this issue? I thought it was a fluke...An $81 fluke! dang that's steep imo ,but i guess i'll have to pony up for the cover. Thanks for the info...I'm still WTH ,how did this happen ,because there on pretty good and my whole 4runner is damn near perfect.

I was in the same boat. I did check many junkyards over time. Typical response was, "we only sell complete roof racks". I shopped the net & the best price I found was $73.87 shipped. I was tired of looking at my rack with the missing part (rear passenger side) so I ordered one. Actually received it today. Nice & shiney, but a complete rip off for what it is. Maybe cost a buck to make!
 
Mine is missing too...dunno what happened to is...i think i'll spend 150 bucks on a sport rack from ebay instead...
