Sill covers

[Paulcovy]

hi all

My nearside silk cover seems to have a large gap from the sill cover and the bottom of the doors , is this normal?
The offside is a nice fit but the offside seems to fit to close to the sill and to far away from the bottom of the doors ? Any one have a similar issue ? And how to get around it
Thanks

Some of the pattern outer sills do have poor fitting at rear.

Any way to sort it ? Or just make a few spacers

If they're pattern parts, the fit is very poor in most cases. It's unlikely that you'll get it right to your satisfaction. If it really concerns you then keep your eye out for some originals. I'd rather strip back, weld, repair and repaint a set of originals before using rust free pattern sill covers.

I keep an eye out for one the drivers side isn’t a bad fit at all
