It has been a tough long winter around here in New England. I was cleaning up some muck off our 02 MCS and spent some time on the door sills. I was originally disappointed to see some "scratches" on the brushed stainless steel door sills with the bold "S" emblazoned in the middle. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised when I found that the protective plastic covers were left on both door sills since delivery back in Sept 2002!! I left both covers on! They don't look that bad and I can't bear to scatch the brushed metal!

Has anybody alse noticed this?
2002 MCS Chili Red-on-Chili Red, packages 1, 2, 3 plus Black Panther Leather!

 

Yeah I did. Stupidly took em off though. Found today that passengers dont care for my mini as much as I do, deep scratch in sill..

No happy!!

 

Yep. I peeled mine off as soon as i noticed some bubbles and dirt in the plastic.

 

My dealer took them off, it's called detailing.

 

I wouldn't mind covering mine with something...I've picked up a scratch or two. IMO, the sills do scratch pretty easily. (a little too easily....!)

 

mine scratched also

 

my plastic coverings are still on, gonna leave them on until they start getting crappy.
