mikie Posted January 19, 2007 Report Share Posted January 19, 2007 Are these only available through RealCar? And about the 2 rear sections, is it only for dual exhaust bumpers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owned Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 You can get them into the US but it is not all that cheap. I think the kit is poorly suited to the car. The skirts look like they were ripped off of something else and just tacked on. They don't "blend" with the stock car one bit. If you get these, I don't think you'll be able to get them to look good without some decent modification. The rear is not that bad, only needs to be molded.

Texas850Turbo Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 I can tell you where they ripped off the side skirts from- E36 M3edit: Am I good or what? I was like hmm I've seen those before....oh yeah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikie Posted January 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 At first I didn't love the kit either. But I have been thinking; Mold the heico front flaps to the front bumper, get the real car side skirts (I might attempt to sand down that line that I find some what of an eye soar for our boxing style cars) and finish it of with the rear. Here's another picture, looks a bit better: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dermy Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 those skirts would really look good along with your heico extensions.i never really liked the front spoiler flaps cause they go down lower than the side skirts, but with those i think it would even out.

VolvoKid4Life Posted January 20, 2007 Report Share Posted January 20, 2007 If you mold it to the body then it will look really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattphi Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 DO IT!You could always just try fiberglassing extentions onto your stock skirts...Shouldnt be THAT hard...and it would be alot cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already asked for a quote and was told anywere from $400 to $600Cnd. Seems a little $$$, my gf's cousin has a body shop so maybe I will check him out. Hopefully all my ideas will be done for summer... I'm first starting with suspension "all over again". Just got IPD Sways and going to be doing coilovers. Then cosmetics will come.
