If you look at the GT ones on their website it shows you them fitted. I'm a bit undecided as to whether they will look really nice or be a bit cheapy looking....?

The sills look great...... shame they don't do GTI embossed ones, but they still look very smart indeed. I may have to get some of these myself.

p.s. Asker, your now safe to where those high heals again without fear of scratching your car  :laugh:

am1w those sills are no good, they are not protecting both levels. Unless you wear high heals or have a woman in your life you wont know how bad it is unless both levels are protected.

Martin, you've ruined them after I lent them to you. They were only ment to be used in-doors. :grin:

Kev: I've resorted to Doc Martins and kilts. So much more practical and relieving on a long journey. :evil:
