I came accross these door sills on ebay. I quite like them. They are similar to the R ones.

What do you think.... worth a punt?

That's the first ones I've seen that I quite like.
Having said that, if I ever did get round to buying a set I'd probably get the ones like Snoopy has just bought.

I've just ordered some of the lockwood lower door sills, as picture below.

(http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab242/WITHCOMBEM/doorsillslowermk6.jpg)
(£35.45 incl delivery)



I've already got fitted on mine the mk5 upper door sills which protect the plastic. I brought these off evo a few months back, which look like the pictures below.

These look smart guys. In my search for all things carbon, I have seen cill protectors that are made in carbon. Only problem being they are far more expensive than the ones shown here. Is it worth me looking into it more for you?
Title: Re: Door sill trims anyone seen these ones for sale anywere?
Post by: dubber36 on 18 August 2011, 19:37
Anyone see in Volksy Driver that RGM Moldings are making cill protectors now? They are black plastic ones and I assume will be like their rearguard bumper protectors.

Now I know they don't look as nice as the stainless ones, however I reckon the stainless ones will still get scuffed. So at £40 for a 3 door set they are a lot cheaper, therefore almost disposable if they do get damaged.

They don't have them on the web site yet, but if you look in Volksy Driver, there's a picture of a Scirocco with them.

I noticed those in the mag too, they look like they will protect quite a big area of the sill and are good value compared with OEM ones.

For protection, I don't think anything will better the RGM Mouldings ones. I just wish I could find a picture of them somewhere.

I got sent the same picture today. I like them as they are far more practical than the shiney ones. I'd be just as carefull climbing in over a shiney cover as I would over a bare cill, so kinda defeats the object really.

I'm going to be ordering a set.

1:10 of the video you can see the adidas door sills look the same as the ones in the photos above.
