We have finally joined the ranks of the 4runner family and are very happy. We purchased a 2013 blizzard pearl SR5 with the premium pkg, beige leather and cross bars. We want to add running boards, chrome exhaust tip, rubber mats, rubber cargo mat and cargo screen. Before we spend any additional on the vehicle, I was hoping for some opionions on these items before I purchase them. Are they worth the expense?

X2 On the Rubber mats.. I have Weather Tech's.
You can get them from HID Kits | Aftermarket Headlights | HID Conversion | KBcarstuff.com with %5 + no shipping.
I would skip on the running boards if you plan on doing any kind of off roading.

I have runnber cargo mat from Toyota and it's just sqare piece of rubber with Toyota logo and raised edges. It took some abuse but it's tend to slide in the trunk and cover tie up rings. So I wouldn't buy it again, I'll try some aftermarket instead. But it better than just a carpet in the trunk.
As per running boards, I have factory one as a part of Canadian Upgrade package and as soon as I damage them badly enough I'll get some sort of rock sliders with a step. Running board are ok for city driving but they are not good for offroad.
cargo screen doesn't cover all the cargo area, leaving gaps at the liftgate and passenger seats. Make sure that you're ok with that. Never had chrome tip - to me seems to be not worth the money : )

Where did you get the N Fab Steps? My wife is petite and hates having to climb into my runner! They look great!
Window Tint
Wish we could tint that dark in MD. They hold us to 35% on front side windows.

This link should work:
Manufacturers of high quality Nerf Steps, Prerunners, Harley Bars, Light Bars, Replacement Front Bumpers, Rock Rails, Rear Runners, Tire Carriers & Truck Accessories
But the website says it will only work on the Trail Edition...?

I had the 35% done on my front windows and it matched up pretty well. You figure with the added factory tint (7% ???) it works out to about 28% ????. (Estimates only)
