I mean the aluminium kick plate that screws onto the top of the sills for show.

Why can't they speak proper English
Rocker, hood, fanny, pants, humor, trunk, aaaagh

I thought they were rocker covers & the things you bolt to your heads are valve covers.
Wings are fenders
Fenders are bumpers
2 countries separated by a common language.

yeah that true , call them rockers ,
going off the subject a little , yet when you could order M25 mouldings on a charger they were actually called wide sill mouldings

so they used the word Sill
