Yes, they are not like the picture. They are completely flat and say 4x4. Therefore they do not have ridges and mold as shown in the picture. The stocks aren't shaped either, so is the beef. If you want an OEM die cast, then shake it and pay the price. Order from dealer. And no, you don't have to drill a new hole in your truck, you can use the old ones. People need to stop being so judgmental. What do you really expect for $12!
