Trim Missing

Hi,

Kindly please advise whether there is anything missing here? Has part of a trim come off?

Looks like sponge all the way down and just noticed the gap yesterday.

Thank you.

Looks normal for a front door sill to me!

As above, normal. You can, however, get a stainless steel finishing trim to make it look more complete

Thank you both for the reply - just found it strange why the sponge would just suddenly tear and leave holes - guess a Defender so anything possible

Aaah the foam, it stops small bits of gravel getting stuck between the sill trim and inner sill bar

I personally would remove it completely as its a bit of a moisture /dirt trap

I’ve fitted sliders, but then fill the gap with sealer. That foam is horrible stuff.
