These are on my '07. My 2010s are the same except they're silver to match the body. Note that the front ones are for a truck w/o factory boards. You can get them either way.

I have the front ones if ur interested.

You either have the fixed boards or the optional power retractable board. Not sure there are front ones available yet for the power boards.

I did install myself. Very easy, use the existing holes. I didn't drill the extra holes except the rear ones have a screw that goes into the plastic fascia.

Yes they are fixed. For $50 they have black grained for use with production running boards. For $80 u get straight black. Not sure about the difference... Shouldnt I be able to give them my VIN and they tell me what they have? Here is pic of my vehicle

The black grained are just black plastic with a textured finish. The more expensive "black" ones are smooth plastic painted with the same paint code as your truck. All depends on which look you like better, it seems that the textured ones may wear better.

Right on, I think the textured looks better and are more practical. They're gonna be getting dirty and can hide it more.

Regardless, any flap will look nice and you won't have to worry about the dirty rain water and dirt splashing up onto your hoe.

Nice hoe, btw!
