Chrome Kick Plates

Anyone had any joy with the Toyota chrome kickplates? s:lol: :lol: s:lol:
Mine just would not stay stuck down even when the doublesided tape was replaced with extra strong stuff s:cry: :cry: s:cry: The moisture peels them off (not that we have had too much lately) and they vibrate on the bottom of the doors s:cry: :cry: s:cry: The surface they attach to is not smooth which does not help.
Cheers,

i've got the lockwood jobbies and after a quick cleaning with some nail varnish remover or something similar then mine have stayed down a treat

Same here with the Lockwoods, mine are still well stuck down after a year now, even with me ripping the whole sill out to run speaker cable through.

How much are the Lockwoods and where can you get them from?
Cheers,

Has anyone got a piccy of the Lockwoods fitted that they could enclose?

Well i currently have the naff Toyota carbon looky likey sills which i got thrown in with the car. Went out last night and dropped my brother off at his friends 18th. Unfortunatley i had to bring him and this other girl (quite fit) back. The girl couldn't manage to get over the door sill and she tore the carbon like sills! s:cry: :cry: s:cry:

Long story short i need the lockwood sills! s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

If anyone else is interested it maybe an idea to sort a group deal! It would make a great christmas stocking filler!! s:bounce: :bounce: s:bounce:

With a (very succesful) GB having been done only a few weeks ago, I doubt you will get much interest so soon, but if you want to give it a a go anyway, PM Peter Laborne who arranged the original as he will have all the relevant contact info.

I have these and think they look the dogs! subtle and not in your face like the lockwood ones.

LeeUK · October 19, 2003, 16:27

I do like the carbon sills but unfortunately they are not made to last. I do tell people to be careful when getting in the car but they never take the same care as me or my girlfriend do! This makes me s:evil: :evil: s:evil: when they scratch my car!

To save me from any possible insane outbursts it's safer for me to invest in some Lockwood sills!

If nobody is interested in a group buy, my girlfriend will probably get them for my Christmas present if i ask nicely! All i have to do is figure what to get her! It's not an engagement ring yet! s:? :? s:?

heathstimpson · October 19, 2003, 19:40

I'll have some on a group buy.

kanujunkie · October 20, 2003, 20:57

got any more on this group buy?? s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

LeeUK · October 22, 2003, 18:51

I have 2 people for a group buy..... including me s:roll: :roll: s:roll:

I think Slaceys right, it's not going to be worth it!
