How do you get new pages to look like existing ones? With tabs to the left and border?

That is not a "new page". That is a page node.
You just need to create a new help page from the Admin CP. It then adds it to the Help section with border and sidebar.

ok - deleted the page node, now I have two terms and rules tabs - same URL http://sphynxlair.com/community/help/termsandrules/

Found the problem here:
but when unchecking no terms and rules It removes the link from my footer, any work around?

Too complicated at this point, thanks @Chris D - I guess the link to the terms page in "options" is the issue if you want a terms and rules help page with the new help page option.

It will not work like that, not sure why, however, just changed it here in the footer template link to my custom page.
Code:
<xen:if is="{$tosUrl}"><li><a href="http://mysite.com/community/help/new/">{xen:phrase terms_and_rules}</a></li></xen:if>Of course it will work... what did you try and what happened?

It still gives me two links. I will try what you said, I have created a new help page called terms and rules link here http://sphynxlair.com/community/help/rules/ then I add this link here like so in options:
And I still get this, both linking to same page:
That's actually a borderline bug... or at least an area for improvement... Hmm...

So its not me being electronically challenged? Or seriously, nothing I did?
I hate to say it: This time you are not being electronically challenged 
Using a custom terms and rules URL adds a link to it in the Help page. If you want that custom URL to be a custom help page, then you get a duplicate entry in the help sidebar. Seems like there could be an improvement made there so I posted this bug report: http://xenforo.com/community/thread...is-used-and-that-is-a-custom-help-page.80871/

So back to my original question, is there a way to get the page node to at least have the similar border as a help page?

In case anyone else wants to tidy up their custom page, I just added a div class and some CSS added in the EXTRA.css
Added the DIV class in the page option field ( you can name the class what ever you like but the CSS must reflect the same name):
Added this in the CSS
Which gives you this:

HTML:
<div class="terms">Your content HTML goes here</div>Added this in the CSS
Code:
/* page node terms border */
.terms {
background-color: #e0ded4;
padding: 10px;
margin: 10px auto;
border: 1px solid rgb(199, 197, 188);
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-khtml-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
}Which gives you this:
, Not sure if this would work for what you're trying to achieve but you can edit "terms_rules_text" phrase Similar threads
