One thing that has been driving me nuts when I enter the car in tight quarter is the inability to clear the scuff plate without scuffing the scuff plate.



Today I had some time to replace my scuff plate as I followed the process on the web...I just searched for "replace boxster scuff plate" ...I know ..ingenious.

It took about 2 hrs...... 1hr 55 min to find the 5MM allen key and 5 min to replace.

Sooo much better...now I will need to enter the car with microfiber socks.

you haven't been taking your shoes off when you get into the car.

Micro fiber socks. I bet their good for the sole.

Forgot to add. Looks good. Just like new.

Thanks Guenter..I haven't had the guts to get into the car though... in fear of scuffen the virgin .

I have a real dilemma now?...what in the heck do I do with the scuffed part?

I don't want to throw it out and I know I can't store forever.

Any suggestions from anyone in " Pedros board land "

... wet-sand it with 600 grit and paint with satin black paint for plastic.
Even better, paint it in high-gloss black (to match the exterior).
It'll be like new so you can reuse it when your microfiber socks start scratching the new piece.
Happy Boxstering,
Pedro

Mike, your car would even match these.
