Chrome tread plates
Gentleman , apologies for my tardiness
as promised, here are the pictures of my ' spare ' XJS HE ( pre-facelift ) sill covers
they are brand new, bought by myself from Jaguar when still available while i was collecting spares for my own restoration , and are now surplus to requirement for my own car,
as can be seen in the reflection , these are as near mint as you will ever find , unless you buy new from jag, which you can't atm

in original packaging as supplied from jaguar

and some ' beauty shots '
IMG_2351 by MyPix on Talk Photography
these are the separate top cover etched stainless sections with 3M tape on the back( once fitted never to be removed without damage ( trust me , i know )
IMG_2354 by MyPix on Talk Photography
i even have some ' Jaguarsport ' ones

i will add, that these HE sill covers are longer than the later facelift one, which due to the shape of the a pillar bottom trim is around 2" shorter , so in theory , these can be carefully cut to fit the later short one, as other than length there is zero difference in them

Center logo is still intact but chrome trim is what is needed..

Ive had decent results using an orbital polisher and rubbing compound with an orange pad
On the driver side, the scratches were much more significant in both number and intensity, so i went with the yellow abrasive pad - big mistake. That almost took off the jaguar script. I'll have to get my other phone to find that pic

That's impressive.
I would have never thought of it!
Thank you!!!
