well i'm quite taken with these sill guards at sgpetchi don't recall seeing these in the aussie catalogue at all so i'm guessing we don't get thembut i have a question (or two)in the piccy they are a small strip against a white background. now my car's sill/guard is definantly grey. so is the item just the little strip or do you get the whole white part as well that possibly covers the entire grey guard?secondly does that site send to australia?cheers
Here is a picture of a rear door one, I think you can see better what you get, looks like the sliver bit and a bit in dark colour that goes up and over the door threshold. Pretty cool. Keep in mind thats my interpretation, I haven't seen these in real life.
Hope this helps.
a very helpful post indeedi did see the kspec ones at some point in my journey but discounted them quickly as they had GT on them. and i see the koreon auto ones have GT on them to. so now coming back to them i must ask what is probably a very naive question...what the hell is GT? and why would it be on there? i thought GT was for Gran Touring but can't think what that has to do with the i30. the kspec ones did confuse me as i assumed originally these were the full guards as well from their pictures, but looking at the shark at koreon auto pics it looks more like they are just showing the guards as illustration purposes as you attach the sill part on top of the guards you have. which is what i was after. i don't mind the LED ones but the whole modding thing is a bit beyond me, and i'm not certain how you're supposed to hook them up to the door lights without removing the guards????the hi-motors ones didn't do much for me overall-------------so if i go for i-30 only its the official (slide on?) or shark racing LED's or the others with GT written on them in either non LED or with LEDand i've got to say i'm surprised how expensive these things are!

Snowcherry, it's starting!!!!.I read this quote of yours somewhere "i'm not usually a 'mod' person"/Next it will be lowered, turbo'd, and have LED lights.It always starts slow; floor mats, tinting, sill guards....
My i30 was delivered with Main Dealer fitted Polished Stainless Steel sill guards and cost an additional £80.00, they were only fixed by double sided carpet adhesive tape (fixed by the manufacturer), they all fell off within 2 weeks.I returned to to dealer, they fitted replacements, and in the cold weather, they fell off even sooner.I may refix them (in the summer) with silicone, but when they slip off it is easy to shut the door on them and crack the paintwork and bend the sill guards (they are not 314L stainless).
I reckon they would be o/k but Aluminium has plusses and minuses I like the fact they wont corrode but could be quite easily dented and scratched...
anyone think there's an issue with where the order would be coming from? should be legit enough?
What a let down ................ to be stuck down with 2 sided tape and then it come off.Is this the only item which has let the brand down?
against a vehicle I had not used for 21 years (he offered £3,700.00 off).
