Those are the official Toyota MR-S Japanese market sills, and are really nice... if a little expensive!
Japanparts is a good option for supply of these.

Try your dealer first with part number 08266-17030 (both), or 08266-17031/right and 08266-17032/left.

Just don't tell them it's a Japanese model part s8) 8) s8)

Here is a better pic of the ones I had (yes, expensive, but definitely the best in my opinion)

Neither of them really help anyway, as it's the black plastic ridge above that really gets all the scuff marks!! s:evil: :evil: s:evil:
