So...I saw a for sale post with a picture of this truck. Does anyone know what I would need to look for if I wanted to find these side skirts and fender flares? Thanks in advance.

That kit looks a lot like the old Mark 3 kits, which BTW also used the same type of bed rails. The thing thats missing if it's a genuine Mark 3 are the decals on the sides and tailgate, but the decals could have been deleted when new, or peeled off later, or the truck was repainted. Mark 3 went out of business a long time ago and I'm not sure where they sourced the fender flares and integrated side steps. I personally believe that they made them which means they will be hard to find.

The closest thing, other than the Mark 3 kits I've seen, would be the old Lund fenders and separate (universal) fiberglass side steps once offered by Lund, which I don't think they make any more.

Nice looking fiberglass body kit. Looks like and older style kit. It's going to be hard to find if it's even still being fabricated. Good luck.

Hey man I just logged in on for the first time in months to ask the same thing, I was cruising craigslist and came across this truck being parted out

https://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/cto/d/1999-dodge-dakota-parting-out/6455894510.html

Needless to say after talking to the guy, I went out yesterday and pulled them off the truck, they were in great shape, fully fiberglass and easily mounted. I came on because I'm curious if they were a genuine Mopar accessory or if they were aftermarket

So after searching ebay at 1997-2003 Dodge Dakota or Dodge truck lineup accessory brochures, I came across this image from someones preview pics, which makes it hard to say. I'm looking at regular cabs but I think these steps were factory ordered, which makes them all the more rare to find. Although it doesn't surprise me because the Durango was ordered with factory sidesteps a lot more frequently than the Dakota and I remember my parents 1999 having them fit right in with the arch of the fender flares like these steps. I'd say best bet is to look for trucks for sale with them and offer to buy them off. I paid $200 bucks for them and a push bar for the front because it was there already and honestly if the dude wanted to sell the truck, he could just take new pictures like they were never there. Hope this helps
