The ones for the rear sills look quite wide, do they look ok fitted?

Yes they look absoulataly fine. Once I've got the lookwood lower sills fitted I'll post some pictures for you.

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?

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.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

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.
