Default Running board

Anyone bought the oem running board? Jus got mine installed and I have to say, it looks very good and blends well with the silver lip on the f sport bumper.

I have them. They're great for the toddlers to get in/out of the car. Supposed to prevent the snow/dirt buildup on the doors as well. Only downside is that if you drive over puddles at speed, they're loud. Like big rain drops hitting a tin roof.

I found that it's easy to hit your ankle on the side step as you alight the vehicle.

I hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty to fire-up Photoshop to rotate, crop, enhance the image ...

No not really as I would still get into the car as it wasn't there. But it's definitely great for my toddler now he can get into the car on his own.

Also be careful not to let Lexus install it. They want 4 hours labor to do it, I got my body shop to do it for 100 bucks and it took 2 hours.
