i decided not to get them, i thought it would look weird with my parchment interior. but if you have aluminum accents it could work.

Email them & ask if you can get a discount since your on this board. They did a few group buys before.

I did this & got them discounted.

I have the same ones as 03silvertypeS, and $85 is for both. However if you guys can put together a group buy it will cost you alot less. I got mine about three years ago in a GB for about $60 shipped for the pair

Edit: Damn fuzzy you beat me too it

You are correct my friend... My bad! And to the post below, you can find some discount codes that will help bring the price down, just do a search for promotional/discount codes for the website.

Nope, although im anal about people touching or stepping on them. Im sure if you touched them all the time they would come off. I have heard of people using epoxy to make them really stick, but I didn't want to put that stuff on my door sills

I have the same sills as o3silvertypes and when I had my car parked in a parking garage in NYC the guy ripped one off with his boot and stuck it on the back seat for me. Im going to have to reply new tape and this time Im going to put on an adhesive promotor first just like what im going to do with my interior custom trim.

Mikes96TL03CLS: Dont buy those sills that you put a pic up on your first post....those look IDENTICAL to ones I first bought online and they are too small to fit across the whole sill of the car (which you cant tell from those pictures). A waste of $$

One word of caution. If they are stuck on good & you ever plan to take them off. You may bend them up trying. That happend to a set I had. They were toast.

I had the ones that 03 posted and I cant reccomend them. When it got cold they came off even with some heavy duty 3M double sided tape, and if you accidently hit them with your foot they will dent. Too much of a PITA for what it was worth to me, so I took em off and threw them away.
