Is there anything out there designed to protect the kick panel? I'm talking about the panel area by your left foot, in the foot well heading toward the door entry exit area. Mine is already getting scuffed up and my Jeep is only a few days old. A nice custom rubber stick-on would be nice.

I haven't seen anything, but I just occasionally clean it and it seems to hold up pretty good.

I am careful as I can be with mine and it is also getting a lot of marks. I am not sure why auto manufactures use this type of plastic which shows every little scuff and is difficult if not impossible to remove scratches/scuffs from. I am thinking after a few years I may just have to replace that particular panel.

IMHO if someone made a cover or protection that would likely be a big seller...for OCD folks like myself.

I have also wondered about replacing the panels. I casually looked into it but it seemed to me they were part of a large trim set that included many parts. I hope I'm wrong. Does anybody have any info on that?

It gets plenty dirty when the top and doors are off. All the dust and dirt will cover any scuffs or scratches you may have.

I haven't spent much time looking but like any interior trim piece it should be able to be ordered as a single piece. If I remember I did look it up at one point. It should be a front driver kick panel or right in that vicinity. Can't be that expensive or that difficult to pop in. If anyone beats me to it, please post it here. I am sure it would be a wise investment to order a replacement at some point since this particular piece takes the brunt of entering and exiting. With all that we spend on mods this should be a no brainer.
