Sure, no problem. There really shouldn't be any concern over the glue, however. The two parts don't receive any stresses pulling them apart.

If you're going to go through the hassle of riveting then covering the sills with suede, I really don't know why anyone would fork out the extra dollars for the specific JDM parts that the sills clip into. If you're not concerned with how the plastics look when complete, just go ahead and do the hack-job on your USDM sills to make the stainless parts clip on like people have been doing for years, then cover them in the fabric.

I'm also going to try and take it a step further by melting some ABS plastic in acetone and using it as a bonding agent, but that won't be for a while when I have another sill to practice on.
