My guess is that someone has previously painted the part with an enamel based paint. The lacquer will attack this and produce the type of results I see in your picture. To correct this, you will need to remove the enamel paint before painting the part with lacquer.

Is it possible to remove the logo plate on the outer sill without removing the sill itself. That piece bothers me and I was thinking about painting it but don't want to remove everything.

i did pursue....
isn't factory but came out quite good...i think, i am away from the car at the moment and no pics with me, i will post pics when i am back from spain...i managed to get the sample piece of natur braun from my local PZ in solingen, as they were refurbishing the showrppm when the 991's came in , it was large enough for the sills, fuse box cover...something else but can't remember what at the moment...
Did you ever pursue? My salesman warned me about not ordering leather for this area. Simply too much abuse from entering/exiting.

Looking for info on same project with 991. Searched 991 Forum. Found nothing.
So, my question: 996 & 997's have holes to access release screws. 991 doesn't (See images). Anyone know how to remove the sill plate to refurb?
Thanks.

^^^did you check PET? the blow-up diagram of all the parts sometimes shows how they go together.
