Stainless Steel Door Sills

[yfin]

Hey look what I just found- and the company is in Australia! :D

I will email them to find out how much - I reckon these would look good! I would like them even better if they didn't have words on them - just plain steel sills would look best IMO.

Have any of you seen these? I found these for sale a while ago - they fit 5th gen accords. Actually they are still for sale!

Haven't heard from them yet. I also phoned them and it goes to answering machine (which has no memory left to leave a message). I guess a lot of small businesses are shut until next week.

Guaging by similar products on their web site they will be around $200. Maybe a group buy is possible (not sure if Ozhonda discourages this).

[LOC888]

group buy sounds good, plz let us know. Apparently Acura TSX come standard with steel door sills.

[EuroAccord13]

My friend tells me that BURG Designs are actually quite pricey....

[Pum[Z]]

hahaha PUM[Z]....i think they would know that ur stepping into the amazing machine without looking at the sills ^^Muhahah sometimes we have illiterate ppl that don't know what car we drive....

Mostly its kids and moms that have no clue what car it is until they see the accord euro badge on the back... One time i got asked is this a Honda Integra...

[PERTH_EURO]

hahah Pum[Z] has been trying to pick up mums LOL in his teg.... lol

[stephen8512]

hahaha MILF hunting in a honda. now thats double the pleasure right there ^^

[toE]

No group buy as per the T&C. :)

btw, liking the Mugen one.

[Pum[Z]]

hahah Pum[Z] has been trying to pick up mums LOL in his teg.... lol
Muhahaha.... MILF hunting.. Got to look for the experience ones :p

[Usual Suspect]

Those mugen ones are damn hot.

Some bling for the teggie to pick up milfs easier.

What is the URL To these? please.
Peekay - the Euro is no the 5th gen so I would be careful buying these

[Peekay34]

OK no probs thanks

[Pum[Z]]

Burg Design have actually released the price for those door sills...

Its $155.00...

Contenplating to buy them or not now... Would bling out my euro even more...

Ebay is selling some for the US accord, I'm pretty sure it will fit on our euro's coz its just stuck onto the original sill with self adhesive tape...

http://69.36.72.119/pictures/2/DSC02832.JPG

Its only $US $29.00 buy it now...

[Gibbo]

I was wondering if the stainless door sills off the wide body accord would fit on the euro - I cant seem to get an answer off honda as to whether they will or not. Any one out there who could answer me would be appreciated Thanx.

[evolution42]

are you sure those stainless steel sills will fit perfectly on a euro? On the euro, the existing plastic ones have 4 ribs all the way down, but the ones in the picture seem as if the existing plastic sills are totally flat...

and also, there are only 3 ribs in the one in the picture... so do you guys think it will fit?

even better, can someone with a wide-body V6 Accord measure their sills?:o

[ABS121]

The chrome look will scuff to easily in my opinion.... would be nicer if it was in brush steel. would look classier too.

[aday]

Just a bump on this thread; has anyone purchased any of the stainless Euro door sills from Burg Design? If so, what are your thoughts on the fit and finish, and durability? Were they easy to fit?

[avid]

I bought and fitted a set of these from Burg Design in June last year,they cost me $160 delivered(Brisbane).They fit perfectly and i have not had a scuff mark on them .
They really do look a lot classier than the crap plastic ones.They have more a brushed look than the chrome finish in the above pictures.Absolutely first class quality look and manufacture.You wouldnt be sorry if you bought them i'm sure.
Just make sure you clean the plastic as they suggest so the S/steel ones will adhere properly.Ive had no probs with mine.

[yfin]

Take some pics please Avid

[tony1234]

[Pumped]

[Atjo]

I have it as well but don't know about the price cause i got it free as a present from the manager of the dealer :)

[Atjo]

Lucky boy!!!
I brought a lot of friends to buy cars over there with special prices and the manager gave me compliment for that. Beside the door sills he fixed my front bumper when i scratched it, free detailing when i put my car into autosalon, free fitting for my mugen visors, i can borrow a car anytime i want for free, discount on accessories, etc. So if anyone wanna buy honda in melbourne can pm me :)

hi, can someone post a pic of the stock plastic sills? i'm from canada and trying to convert my tsx into an accord :wave:

[aday]

I fitted a set of the Burg Design sills today. The finish is quite good, although the pressings aren't perfect, particularly for the rear panels, where there's a fair bit of curvature. Nevertheless, they seem to have fitted okay (they come with double-sided tape and adhere directly to the stock plastic sills).

Women can't tell the Integra, Euro, or Civic apart from each other.

[IAMVTEC]

And also this door sill is rubbish, I don't see its function other than as a bit of wankery.

[aaronng]

And also this door sill is rubbish, I don't see its function other than as a bit of wankery.

It's an "OPTION". Plus, some people prefer to have metal scuff plates rather than just black plastic.

[IAMVTEC]

Still, it's got as much use as a sugar coated toothbrush.

[aaronng]

It's more of a "why drive a $60,000 BMW when a $12000 Daewoo can serve the same purpose?"

BTW, if you coat the toothbrush with a tooth-friendly sweetener like isomalt, you can get kids to enjoy brushing their teeth. Same reason why they make watermelon/strawberry/orange/grape-flavoured toothpastes for kids.

[IAMVTEC]

Yeah but the BMW is actually visible. It's stupid but some twisted people out there get a sense of self worth like that.

I can guarantee 99% of people will never notice the door sill, hence why I say its just a piece of wankery.

To the owner, it is also visible. You should look at it this way. If you say a $60,000 BMW is visible, then this $160 piece of wankery only needs to be 0.27% as visible in order to earn its $160 asking price. :)

[tony1234]

That is exactly why i got them.IMO the plastic scuff plates look cheap in a Euro especially a lux.

[directedfx]

Off the topic of wankery, check this out:

http://www.burgdesign.com.au/catalogue/product_info.php?cPath=55_59&products_id=1204

The metal door sills, with Electro-luminescent lit 'Accord'. Only thing is its for the Accord, and doesn't specify if it will fit the Euro (Sure it will fit though). But it's down to $69 too which i think is worthwhile, wankery or not! :p

[Tobster]

Still, it's got as much use as a sugar coated toothbrush.

No, given that it's a "high traffic" area, it stops you (or more often, others) from scratching the paint in the "doorway". Some people (like children and the elderly, in my experience) tend to step there. Things get dropped by accident. Women wear high heels that can catch...

Stainless steel doesn't stractch like plastic.

[Tobster]

Women can't tell the Integra, Euro, or Civic apart from each other.

Well there's a generalisation for you. Many men can't either. Who cares? Not everybody's a car nerd (or has any interest in cars other than the fact that they use them for transport) and can recognise different makes and models from any manufacturer.

[Suntzu]

Im getting the stainless doors sills after i get::cool:

1. AngeL EyZs. Fkn sweet especially if you get the BMW ones and mod them or a euro. ( its cheaper)
2. Mugen Fuel Cap in Chrome. Nuff said. Looks tuff as.
3. Engine Cover. ( no just a stock one. I lost mine down the gap in the couch)
4. Milo Tin (TM) Exhaust tips
5. Many and various stickers for front quarter of car. Extra Jap text is +1 in coolness.
6. Cool blue triangle for bonnet. I think it means "warning, Vtec PoWa within.":zip:
7. 22 inch chromies with rolled guards. Booochata!
8. Used fluffy dice from a VN. You know.
9. If I have forgotten any essentials please add to this thread.:thumbsup:


After these performance mods im getting some basic cosmetic mods. You know, to make the car look cool.

[Pumped]

If you look at it like that, why modify your car at all?
why change the wheels?
why change your grill?
why want more power?
why not drive a colt?

Because I have to take care of this section and threads that get turn into spam threads have to be closed. I don't want to close this thread just because of spam.

I'm so tempted to buy these sills, but $69 be better spent for me by getting impact sockets. :(

[Pumped]

$69 is a bargain for these sills, i bought them a while ago, they look great.

Had some minor troubles with the fitting of the rear ones, seemed a very slight difference in size but got them on in the finish!

[aaronng]

The rear ones don't have that slight curve where it meets the inside. So a slight bit of black plastic is not covered.

[my_vtec77]

Hi aaronng, will those Accord sills with light fit into Euro? coz those ones look hotter.

[cupnoodle]

Has anyone fitted these onto an 06-07 model? Would it fit the same? Thanks!

[aaronng]

Hi aaronng, will those Accord sills with light fit into Euro? coz those ones look hotter.

No idea. Send them an email asking for the dimensions of the door sills. If they are the same, they should fit.

[aaronng]

Yes, they are the same.

[cupnoodle]

Just emailed the guys @ Burgdesign, their reply:

"Unfortunately the 06-HD027 Accord Door Sills are a larger size than the 06-HD039 Accord Euro Door Sills. I would recommend using the 06-HD039 on your Honda Accord Euro."

[Atjo]

The front sills should be fit but the rear sills won't fit cause the sills on accord euro are shorter & curved as well.

Just ordered a set from Berg Design at $69 plus freight. Seems a reasonable price for the product.
Cheers :wave:

[tron07]

Very tempted to get the lighted ones for the front and leave the back without sills.... just worry about the light going off after awhile or it may looks too ricey

[tron07]

Hi, just wondering how long would they need to deliver the sills after placing the order? I will be going overseas, thus might not be able to receive it...

*edit*
Placed the order already, they say probably will send/reach me by next week.

Not really just take your time installing them as the double sided tape really grabs.

[tron07]

Since I stay in a appt, and no one is in in the middle of the day, wonder how would that go... will they send by post, and the postman leave a note ask me to go to the post office to collect it, or would they courrier it and the courrier company contact me on my mobile?

[aaronng]

Just picked mine up from Burg Design. Very nice for the price. :) It even has rubber around the edges so that it doesn't scratch the paint!

[tron07]

Wooo woooo....

I got mine yesterday. Reach home and saw a long package on the table. They courrier it and my flatmate collected it for me. Open it up and check it out... looks good. Comes with a small tube of bonding stuffs, some instruction, a catalog and 2 pens.

Probably will only install it next year.

[aaronng]

The small tube is a cleaner that you use on the plastic so that the sticky tape can stick on properly.

[devilians]

just placed my oder should get in on monday got it for $78 shipped
very happy with the price can't wait till I get them

[BusterSonic12]

i like the front piece, not the rear tho...

[traumatized]

yeah it's a bit unfortunate that the back doesn't sit perfect with the black plastic sill that is currently there.

[Rendezvous]

has anyone tried to install these at < 18 degrees temp as per instructions not to? Is it really that big a deal?

I have just got mine and have not had a chance to put them on today as the weather has turned a bit cool

[EUR003act]

has anyone tried to install these at < 18 degrees temp as per instructions not to? Is it really that big a deal?

I have just got mine and have not had a chance to put them on today as the weather has turned a bit cool

ive installed stickers and interior panelling (both said not to install under 25degree celcius) in like 10degree weather... they stuck fine... just use a hair dryer to lightly (do not melt the plastic!!!) heat up both the doorsill, and the black plastic... then press firmly until cool... i left braces on my interior panels for 24hrs.... but that was because theyre not sitting flat, but holding on vertical

[glengowan]

Fitted mine today, look good no problems fitting

[devilians]

I fitted it follow the papper that given by them but couldn't get the back right

How is ordering from the Burg Design website supposed to work?

I have made an order and put in my credit card details and i think i read that there will be a follow-up e-mail with shipping costs and i am to confirm it. But, no e-mail as of yet and it has been almost 2 working days. Either they're really busy or my order must not have been submitted properly (although i have received an 'order process' e-mail).

Give them a call or go over to their office at Moorabbin.

[tron07]

they are quite fast..... got it around 3-4 working days after placing the order.
Just call Burg Design's office.

[kimnkk]

Yeah, i think i will give them a buzz today, else i might drop into their office at Moorabbin (i was just down there the other day actually, but had no idea Burg Design was down there too). A bit far for me however, so shipping would be easier.

Thanks guys, good to hear that they're usually fast :D

[kimnkk]

I called them up today and whilst i was on the phone with them, the sills arrived! Talk about timing :D

They are on special for $59 at the moment and i got a set. They are fantastic for the price! Cant wait to install them. Bling!
