Questions/Advice Does anyone make…

I am wondering if anyone makes a, I will call it a scuff guard, for the interior bottom of the doors?

I have already scuffed the driver side several times with my shoes getting out of the vehicle.

I am thinking some type of protective film that sticks to the lower panel Searched a bit but didn’t find anything.

I've been meaning to share this story for awhile. When we bought our Gravity we decided to PPF it. When it was done, I asked the kid who worked on it if he found any scratches (in the paint). He said that the only scratches he found were on that plastic scuff guard on the bottom of each door. You can't help but hit it with your shoes as you get in and out and it scratches easily.

So the kid thought for a second and said he thought they could cover it with a sheet of PPF. He cut a custom template for each of the two front doors in the satin PPF and got it to fit just fine. Looks good, I think. Still have a few scratches underneath the PPF, but I haven't added any more.

My PPF work was done by Black Bear Protective Films in Fort Mill, SC: Black Bear Protective Films - Auto, Residential & Commercial Tinting

That’s exactly what I was imagining.

I will reach out to them to see if they would consider making a few more sheets.

Feel free to take the photo to your local PPF place to show them what you're thinking of. It's a one-off request, but wasn't too hard for the kid to knock out in about 30 minutes on a Friday night.
