Ive got two new sills to weld in and i really dislike all the low down clutter too .
The chrome trim and bodyline recess is just too much on such a simple car .. I`m thinking of trimming out the sills on the car just shy of the line on them , planishing it flat than over lapping the new sills with the line flattened out too . Seems like a lot of work but the result you have got looks much much better than stock !

it is a hell of alot of work. mig it all, ground bock, body fillered smoothed. probably took over a week to achieve. i didnt like the original sill edge after putting sill on and completeing it as standard so chopped it all out and smoothed. are you using a roll over jig. makes life easier
