    Are there any companies out there that you guys know of that make door sill protectors for the '01-04 style trucks? For the life of me I can't seem to come up with anybody that does. I've visted a few Toyota OEM part store websites, but they only carry the protectors for the second generation trucks and this is the case for other truck accessory websites I've visted as well.

    I would like to protect the door sills on my '02 from getting in and out and would like to put in some black covers on like the one's that are sold for the second gen. I have also thought about possibly using truck bedliner for the door sills, but I would rather use a cover instead.

    Anybody know of any companies that do? Thanks in advance!

    I am a dealer for Xpel paint protection film. We offer a door sill guard, comes in black or clear. Its a thick laminate, the stuff is awesome. Give me a shout if you're interested.

    How much would it cost for enough film to protect both door sills?

    $26 shipped. Black or Clear, its 13mil embossed laminate and Its 60'' by 2.75'' so you'd have 30'' for each doorsill

    hey would this be similar to those 3M paint protection film? I also want to get some for he tailgate so the bulb seal from the topper doesn't scratch up the tailgate.. would your film work there as well?

    Yessir. Shoot me a pm with the dimensions of the film you need and I can get you set up. I have it on my tailgate as well. I also sell kits for the rocker panels, and bed rail protection kits.

    Unfortunately, all I have is the stock photo from Xpel's website. I never think to take a picture when I have them in hand. They ship from Xpel's warehouse.
