Default New Black Side Sills?

Ok, I think I should swap out my 2016 monster side of sills for the 2015 version.. I just think my car would look so much better, thought? How difficult a job, what should I expect to invest?

Beautiful day today in Georgia, just finished a nice wash and spirited drive.

I think the 15 sills would certainty be more fitting. In my opinion, these look aftermarket.

Looks even better with the sills removed entirely. Makes the car look sleeker and longer.

Or wrap the ones you have in black, at least the car won't look so porky in the middle.

Car looks good as it is. Body colored side sills are the best.

If they'd made the car with the wider sills first, and then changed to the older style, I'm sure we'd be moaning that it makes the car look too skinny.

That is a beautiful automobile. My 2016 S ( in rhodium silver too) has the sills that wrap under. Nice and smooth and one might say elegant.
But come on man, your car looks great, as it is. House is little shabby though!
