Not bad looking but I would detract the lack of original steel boards from the value of the truck. Not bad as a stop-gap measure while you fine real ones, and they won't rust out.
The thing I would be leery of is the rear fender support, the rear fenders are supposed to bolt to the running boards.

Those should be steel and they hold up the cab.
