    Yeah they look good, and lots of options with the vinyl. Hopefully they will hold up nice over time but I gues for the money you can fix em or junk em if they don't.

                      Ahhh the tape doesnt stick to the plastic already in the doorsill and u have to cut the aluminum shorter to fit because of the curves in the sill..... might just be easier to buy some..... i'll keep trying things tonight

                          The ones you buy are cut short too, they don't go all the way to the back of the door. I would just cut them, don't try bending... thats bound to fail
