Lower door seal fitted or not?

I have these chrome porsche protection trims that are fitted on the sill step when you open the doors and I notice that you can just about see the chrome edge when the door is shut(from a distance).
If anybody has these I would appreciate a comparison and if there is perhaps a lower door seal that might be missing maybe?
Thank you.
 
I have these. I wondered whether they were standard or aftermarket fit. Mine just sit flat on the top of the cill so no chance of seeing them when the door is closed.
 
I've got the same trims.

I can't see how you would notice them in the gap between the door and the cill unless either they stick out of the gap, or you lie down with a torch and peer into the gap?
 
I had the shaped stainless ones on my lux and it annoyed me I could see them from a distance, have flat carbon ones on the turbo so they are almost invisible, they do not offer as much protection though,

Don't quite understand your problem, if your sill trims are something like this,
how can they be seen when the doors are closed?

These are similar style fitting and you do see the lipped edge from standing back from the car.They dont stick out like a sore thumb its just that I can see the chrome.

A company called fiberlyte that when I just googled for the details appears to have ceased trading.

Think I might make some from Twintex as it doesn't scratch easily and on a black car won't be right in your face like alloy (or be seen when doors are closed [X(]).
