Just curious if there is a way to protect the paint that is located by the door when you step into the truck. That interior ledge when the door is closed.

I purchased two sets of the Ford door sill protectors and installed them on my Scab.
I cut the second set to fit the rest of the exposed areas for the center and rear passenger sections too.

They are holding up well.

I put some 4" transparent 3M protective tape on those areas. Should last quite a while.

I have a better solution than all of those "temporary" ones.

Line-X.

You can thank me later.

Haven't heard of that stuff. But I'd imagine if its clear it'll still get dirty and/or obtain light surface scratches that'll hold dirt in it.

I asked for Line-X XS-350 Oxford White matched bed liner and the owner straight up told me he'd drop $100 off the black to save me from making a big mistake. Even though it was Line-X, the fact that it was white no matter how strong the level I chose it'd still be hard to clean and have a little dirt on it after my first bed of dirt no matter how much I'd wash it.

I still stand by basic black Line-X for this interior door sill.

I only have 15k on it but nothing yet it's new to me also. But if it dose for any reason it scratches or anything it's fixed for free.
