Default Need new sil protector

I know many of you have gone to aluminum or other after-market sil protectors. I want to simply replace the original black one with another black one. Where can I find one? Thanks.

GM has an upgraded sill protector available as an accessory that's thicker than the stock unit and has the Corvette sript in chrome. You can order them through Fred Beans or Fichtner Chevrolet.

I believe he want's an exact replacement for the original. Check with Bob at fichtner chev. I am afraid to remove mine for fear of scratching paint.
