the sills next to the doors on an s2

[crackthatoff]

Mine are looking quite scuffed, I had a bright idea of using some of that chav interior plastic film either in black or carbon effect(although the carbon could look pants )
any one else done anything to renew them?

[S Works]

Get some Autoglym interior plastic renovator stuff or if really bad, get them covered in leather

You can always replace the sill covers themselves, I think eliseparts.com have them or dealers can certainly get them, about £60ish IIRC.

uhhum (clears throat) are they just stuck in place? as I do flooring a re trim should be a simple task if i can get them off and on again!

recon I'll have a go myself, any one sell fabrics? alcantara could be nice to match the seats if i could get hold of any.... longevity is not really an issue, I recon I could re trim them in 15 mins!

Mine have scuffs too but I just presumed thats why they're there, to receive a good scuffing, so when it gets severely bad, or when I come to sell, I'll probably replace them then.

I think they are stuck in place as well with some supa dupa lotus glue.

I have read in the past that the glue is a bitch to get off

ordered some black alcantara off the web to match the seats and the dash, it should arrive tomorrow or the day after, Ill post some pics to show you how it goes.
bought 2m2 so there should be enough to do them both twice and its only 6.99 a sqm
there are loads of colours even the horrid 135r bright blue !

My driver's side one has a crack across one corner - it's obviously lifted up a tad over the past 4 years and has flexed a little each time I get in and out.

Probably need a new one before long.

Get some baby wipes from your local supermarket/shop, keep them in there and when ever you scuff the sill give it a wipe. This is also good when you have someone who has not got in an Elise before as they drag loads of crap across the sill.
