Door sill protectors
« on: 29 January 2014, 20:04 »
Picked up my new GTD 3 door a couple of weeks ago, I am sure there is a thread here somewhere but does anyone know where you can get door sill protectors apart from VW stealers?

Damo its not answering your question but given you're another NI owner can I ask did your dealer fit mudflaps to your car? They are a bit of an NI phenomenon.

No I never get mud flaps fitted, I think they ruin the look of the car.

Stone chips down the side don't do much for the looks either.

Never had this happen for the lack of mudflaps, in fact mudflaps can cause damage by flexion chafing of the paintwork or become dirt traps.
