Default Factory Scuff plates

Can anyone tell me if a set of these for an 07 5 door Zetec, will cover front & back doors, or just the front. My local Ford dealer has NFI. Also, are they worth the 200 smackers?? It doesnt take much dust/mud/dirt etc to leave filthy marks on the sills...especially with the kids draggin their feet...cheers, Jay

The Ford website says set of 2 Front scuff plates, $175 fitted. so a set of 4, if they fit the back, would set you back $350.

Definately look better than nothing. I ticked most of the option boxes when I ordered mine. Except reverse parking sensors, it's a small car, the back end is like "right there"

Dont pay for scuffies get them thrown in for nothing make it a condition of sale trust me if it comes down to it the dealer will fold. Wouldnt think 3 door scuffies would fit the 5 door as 3 door has much larger doors, but you never know. Think it would be front only never heard of rear scuffies for Fiesta. Also saw $1800 off new 3 door zetec rrp @ discountnewcars.com.au.

Repco will happily sell you a pair of generic aluminium look sill plates for around $20. Just use the included adhesive to secure to your pride n joy.

There are short and long sizes to suit any application and come in pairs.

They look pretty decent, saw them in store this afternoon.

I have these on my Fez. I only needed to make a longitudinal bend on it to fit my door sills. They look OEM and work well.
