    My ‘21 TRD ORP factory sill covers actually cover up that painted area of the door sill where the item in the link you sent would go.
    Don’t yours cover that area?

    I didn't care for how the factory plastic cover left the outer painted edge and face of the door frame/sill exposed though as I found my shoes would slide on the edge or hit that face getting in and out. So I removed the factory sill plate and put on clear paint protection film and then put the factory cover back on…… in the event this is also your concern.

    I just want it mainly for the "Bling" aspect. Wanted a Red TRD Pro Logo on it.

    I haven't really noticed that. But it may.

    My understanding is that most of these are just heavy duty vinyl stick-on covers. You can put them on top of the factory sill covers.

    I had ones similar and they were too thick. Kept sticking to the doors I didn’t open often enough, sounded like ripping off a slice of duct tape.
