aluminum scuff plates

Is there anywhere that still has them?

Was looking around and searched old threads. I attached the pic of what mazdaformance has, but they are advertised as "durable satin finished scuff plates. "




Are these the right ones, or are the aluminum ones different?

The ones i'm looking for are in neo omega's pic here:

You'll have to do the polishing yourself (or send them to someone to have them polished).

They get scuffed up pretty good. I actually sanded mine down and painted them black.

These plates look very nice but scratch very easily.
After only a few weeks it looks pretty bad already.
Don't touch them dragging your shoes.

Sure, just come by with a $20K cashiers check Actually I wouldn't even sell it for that.

-Wuppy, the Carbon Fiber ones on my car have not scratched and can easily be buffed out. When I take them to get them finished I will have them apply a very strong coating that will not scratch but enhance the luster with the CF.
