On the Escape, the standard rocker panels and the optional step bars/running boards are not paint-to-match parts.
The only paint-to-match factory parts are the Mariner's standard rocker panels, and the rocker panels on Escapes with the Sport Appearance Package, but they're only rocker panels, not step bars.
