Hi - the interior plastic door trim/panel on my S2 Elise has become a bit scuffed and scratched. Does anyone know if there's some kind of polish or paste - equivalent of T-cut - that will cover the blemishes?
Alternatively, are the plastic panels cheap-ish and easy to replace?
Cheers

What about re-trimming in leather or Alcantara?! Shouldn't cost too much.

Mmmm good idea - thinking of having mine done in alcantara actually and having the steering wheel re-done (getting a bit loose and bobbly). eliseparts do it on a replacement service £34.95 a pop. Might just treat myself this month... payday tomorrow

None of that eliseparts stuff fits the S2. Geary doesn't do much for the S2 and I get the impression he's not very interested either!

My sill plate is scuffed on one site after a clumsy garage did some work. They scratched it and the plastic has started to lift on one side. Don't really see much point in replacing it for now.

Have decided to bite the bullet and buy a replacement door panel - £50ish from Christopher Neil.
If anyone is interested in carbon fibre stuff or having bits re-trimmed in leather or alcantara, I have heard good things about Hangar 111 - see www.hangar111.com

Have you tried Bell & Colvill ? I remember they showed me some carbon effect sill replacements (I think if my memory is correct about £160) ... looked very good and was told by the salesmen was one of their best selling products.
