Look nice ......... but now that you have posted it, there will be a bid war on soon ............. :D

Look good but as the words say "They will be securely packaged with each one wrapped in foam to stop scratching".

How long will they stay nice and shiny when fitted to the car I ask

They are also called "scuff plates" cos that's what they do, they protect the sills from marking by accidental scraping of shoes as people get in and out. I think it is inevitable that they will get marked.

Bumbers are called bumpers, but they dont get bumped everyday.

But yeah your right it is inevitable they will get scratched a little at sometime

Got a set of them the other day of the same guy - good service - paid just under £50 for them. Then after I won them the next day someone decided they were selling their original lexus metal scuff plates, starting bid around £25. - Gutted lol. - but still, the carbon ones are nice -and different. :)
