Rico, how does your stainless ones look on the dark car. Those latter pictures look great, they are with porsche text on black vinyl! I was thinking about having porsche crest on but this looks great too.

The black sill plates look great on the white car !

Sorry for the delay Marazas. I have not had a chance to get mine set yet. I am hoping this week with the good weather coming. I will post the pics as soon as they are set.

It looks really good but not easy to decide which is the nicest [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img])) black or silver [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img])) I guess silver is more durable.

Although my sills are still pretty new, it doesn't seem like they'll be exposed to a lot in the way of scratching. I don't really use them as a step. I rest my hand on them as I'm getting in the car so no real worries about the black scratching up.

My black sills did get a scratch when a careless sod dropped something on one. But normal use does not seem to worry them.

I bought SS sills from Design 911 in the UK and installed them today. Here is the link

http://www.design911.co.uk/fu/pt67_491_-cm...ide-Sill-Trims/

I think this might come from the same supplier you guys use in the US. I think They look exactly the same.

Chris,



I just sent you a PM with Harvey's email.



My sills are still in "perfect" shape (see picture in post above). You just need to ensure that you lift your feet over the sill and "nicely" mention that to any passenger that wants the "priviledge" of being in the passenger seat! <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

Thank you. Got the PM with the email address.



Love the design of your sills. Hope you think that palgierism is the greatest form of flattery, because I'm hoping that Harvey can replicate that design. Looks awesome.

By all means! <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/cool.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> Harvey's products are "top notch".

When I asked Harvey to make them in that style, I was wondering if the PORSCHE logo would be a just a simple decal, but it is a "proper" embossed crest, which in "real life" makes the sills look very "high end". I receive many compliments on them... and so should you!

I have Harvey's sills on two different colors. They we both in SS with the Porsche crest only. (Understated elegance!) <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/wink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> Looked great on both, but I like them on my current 968 (Midnight Blue) better.
