I think they look great and the quality is good. Time will tell to see how well they protect the door sill.
You've had them a bit now - are they holding up OK?

How are they holding up? One complaint I've seen on these "cheap" protectors is they aren't very thick or durable.
They are in good shape after nearly 3 months. They're Vinyl so they are flexible if scraped but do what I want them to do which is to keep the door sill from getting scratched. Cheap enough that I got a couple sets and can easily swap them out if it gets cut or ripped which I doubt will happen any time soon. Not much thinner than the OEM version I had on my 2017 Taco, so I figure these are on for a long time to come.

It looks like similar ones are available from Bushwacker for $199 with free shipping.

Planning to order the Bushwacker Supercab part# for my truck..

I'm curious if Ford is just reselling this as they do the AVS products.

Yea they are holding up pretty good for how little they cost. I've been in and out many times and even wearing some work boots when up at the river/lake and there are a few scuff marks on them but it's not worn through in any spots also the dirt just cleans right off.

Nice! Would you mind sharing a picture? I’m thinking about buying those and want to see what the truck looks like with doors closed. I can’t tell how low they protect

The only problem I have with this (OCD starting to kick in) is that the ends dont reach the tires, that's it like idk why I do this to myself. If anyone can 3D print the ends I'd totally buy these. And get them painted magnet down the road sometime later if needed.
