Scratches to easy

[garvenator10]

hey anyone else have a problem with scratches on there door sill plates i want to replace them but i dont know if u need to get the whole molding that it sits in or u can just take the chrome sill plates out?

My drivers side has a couple in it, nothing bad though. You can pull them out if you want to replace them the plate just comes off.

i had a rock or something in my shoe when i first got my 6. there are a few small dents, and scratches. big deal at first, but bound to happen again.

im not replacing them

Yeah, my passenger side door sill plate got scratched like 2 days after I got my G6. Every time I look at it, I want to replace it, but I can't justify the price of a replacement. $135 http://www.gmgoodwrench.com/accessor...94983991658869
I have seen them for a little cheaper on another site but can't remember which one.

thry just pop right out? whats holdin them in?

You could replace them and then put some protective film over it, that will help protect it and then you can just replace the film when it wears out.

They are just glued in there, pry em out.

[garvenator10]

are u sure its just glued in i dont wanna try and get em out and there be problems.. and the dealer said they didnt have them seperate that u had to get that whole assembly peice

[Interfire]

Well you can take that whole piece off and then underneath, there are tabs you can bend which will release the plate. That's the better way to do it if you are worried about it, they aren't strong at all so it's easy. I know you can just buy that plate, so I dunno what they were talking about.

that was the exact same thing i thought too. never made sense to me the placement of those damn things. i like the idea but they are in a bad location.

Mines are messed up pretty badly as well. Maybe I'll order new ones and clear coat them or something to help prevent scratching i dont know.

Just do what I did and go to a place that will do paint protection film installs, and see if you can buy a piece big enough to cover it and put it on there. Or have them do it since it should be cheap for them to quickly do that, mine works great and they actually gave me a piece of the headlight film which is a lot thicker.
