Stainless sill protectors...

Post by Tifa »

Advice required please gentlemen (and ladies)

best type?

best price?

where from?

I've seen a few, on to be honest, some are just a tiny thin stainless strips....so not very much protection there I think? :rolleyes:

Does anyone actually make a sill protector that actually covers the sill ? :nod:

As opposed to a token bit of stainless steel with a Roc logo on it? :shake:

Cheers :)

Agreed. Ordered mine and they were with me in just over a week. They look superb and are much better than the dealer ones. They're way too long for my current Ford Focus doors, so would think that they would protect a good portion of the Sill.

Built: 28th March 2011
Delivered to Dealer: 21st April 2011
