F430 Inner Door Jam Wear?

It's not an inconsistency issue, but depends on which option you have. Sounds like you have leather sills. The standard car has carpet and aluminum, and then there is the option for Carbon Fiber, which has a carbon fiber inner and central piece with a small area in Aluminum to prevent scuffs...

Here is epic of the carbon sills from my car.

If yours are leather, you can just have them recovered. They would not be vinyl, this is a Ferrari not a Toyota.

 

Corey r your door sills oem?

 

Yes...
Right now the only non-OEM interior pieces in my car are the cup holder replacing the ashtray and the floor mats because I wanted to save the factory floor mats from wearing and to be honest they were a little plain...

I am thinking of changing the door lock to carbon fiber only for durability purposes since it is harder to scratch.

 

Mine r leather. but carbon is on my list. Just not ready yet as their pretty pricey

 

I have the exact same configuration as the OP. I think those front sill plates are aluminum. I didn't use a polisher on mine, but used metal cleaner with some decent amount of rubbing and they came out much better.

I think to replace them, you would have to replace the whole sill with the leather but I'm not sure. They don't seem to be separate parts.

 

Those are called Crossmember covering or internal sill plate. They make them in leather or full carbon. You'll see the full carbon version in a lot scuds/16m. I have them in Carbon its one of my favorite part of the car. It took me a year to find a set...I actually found them separately....Freddan has a set for sale. Its a rare carbon piece and the factory doesn't make them anymore.

I say just get them rewrapped in leather this time...I dont think your going to find new ones anymore. I think that was a rare option and not many around.

I agree, this was a feature that sold me on my car.... (ignore the wet seat bolster side, should have wiped it down before the pic... I'm so lazy)

Has anyone found out if the leather and aluminum are separate pieces ? If so is there a part number for the aluminum ?
Thx much appreciated

 

They are not. It’s a fiberglass base with an aluminum plate glued to the top in the one area. The leather is glued over the assembly. It can be reupholstered but not easily removed and replaced.

 

Interesting, so that leather stays in place, but not on the dashboard

 

It could be edge glued only, but yeah. You’d need to peel it off. I have a spare set I bought to install on mine that I need to recover and spiff up the aluminum. I’ll be sure to document it. That’s this fall/winter though.

 

I was actually commenting on where the leather is down below in the dark, glue doesn't seem to be affected

Makes an argument for the dash issue being probably from sun exposure

 

Dash issue is 100% from the sun shrinking it. I don’t think Ferrari glues the entire surface of the leather on any panel. Certainly not the doors. Makes for a more flat appearance but also allows for easier lifting. Either way, shrinking leather has incredible strength. Enough to tear fibers attached to glue so it wouldn’t matter if the glue was all over or still intact.
