Door Sill CF mod Any one do it?
I got my CF door sills from Suncoast and I will do the install tomorrow and post pics. I dont think it should be too difficult to do but I was wondering if anyone else has changed the sills? Look for the update tomorrow evening after 4PM West coast time.

Was advised to clear bra these to save aggravation later when they get scratched up.

Well Stupid silly easy. If you use goo gone and have some patience its pretty easy. THe old ones are glued with 2 sided tape. The new ones are also. You just pull up the old ones using some type of plastic
pry tool. They were both destroyed when I did mine. Then use the goo gone and soak the remaining tape for a minute then scrape up the tape residue with a plastice scraping tool. This will have to be repeated several times and a heat gun doesnt help. Goo gone is the key. Then clean up with soap and water and the new ones press in. They fit really well so no sweat there. Just pull off the tape cover carefully press the new sill in and done.
I measured a .032 usecs(micro seconds). quicker in the 0-60 time after the install.
I would put pics up but they look like all the others we have seen.
I am moving on to the 3.8, direct injection, sequential gearbox mod.
