I probably need to get the covers.

The large mark does not match the track of the opening/closing door. Not even close. See post #4.

I put tape on the sill and held a marker to the bottom of the door and closed it. The marker tracks the weatherstripping path across the sill.

those scuffs are not from the weatherstripping.

I think someone has access to his car when he's not looking.

If you were smearing your weatherstripping it would happen every time you open/close the door and you'd see more marking than that. Also the door would have to be pretty hard to open/close if it was dragging that hard.

100% caused by shoe/heel marks guaranteed. I bought Expel to cover mine because I had the same thing happen. Also I learned to watch my feet going in/out of the car.
