They are idiomatic, the verb and the preposition do not form a syntactic unit. What we do have syntactically is a Verb Phrase followed by a Prepositional Phrase: “are looking [V.

They often admit an adverb between the verb and the preposition, as in: The police are looking carefully into the matter; I walked slowly down the street; I looked regretfully at him.
