I've tried my best to be careful, but I still manage to get some scruffs from shoes on the door sill.

What do you guys do to keep it clean and look like new??

yeah same issue here....
will a really thick coat of wax help??? Maybe apply 3M (protective transparent film over front bumper) on the door sill would help...

I constantly scuff mine with my black shoes.
Tried many cleaners.
I found the miricle answer.

Mr. Clean cleaning sponges.
They are awesome. Just wet the sponge, wipe the area, follow up with a damp towel and presto, scuffs gone.

These things are awesome, I didn't believe it until I tried it.
They work so well, I use them to clean all the plastic parts.
The sponge works great on the arm rest too.
The best thing about them is there is no residue or odor, just clean!!
